Florida Crystals Corporation (FCC), a vertically integrated cane sugar company based in West Palm Beach, Florida, has entered into a collaboration with Lemongrass, the SAP on cloud company, to move its SAP estate to AWS.
FCC’s migration project, which started in May 2021, has now been completed and Lemongrass, a partner in the planning, migration, operation and automation of SAP in the hyperscale cloud, continues to provide ongoing support for their SAP landscape. Lemongrass worked with the cane sugar company to design and build a targeted environment and Landing Zone on AWS whilst migrating the FCC SAP estate.
FCC took a cloud-first approach for their enterprise applications and IT operations and chose to move to hyperscale cloud to deliver financial value and application consolidation while also setting a foundation for future innovations. By moving its SAP systems to AWS, the business can be more efficient and agile, aligning the company’s IT strategy with its sustainability goals.
