Service
Performance Optimization
We resolve system performance issues that impact speed, user productivity, and downstream processes without disruption or unnecessary cost.
Overview
SAP systems that started fast eventually slow down. Custom code accumulates. Data volume grows. Workloads shift. Batch windows tighten. Indexes that were optimal in 2018 are no longer aligned with current query patterns. By the time users start complaining, the system has often been degrading for months.
deBCor's Performance Optimization service is structured remediation, not guesswork. We instrument the system, find the actual bottlenecks (not the suspected ones), prioritize by business impact, and remediate — across HANA database, ABAP code, batch architecture, and integration patterns.
Includes SAP HANA in-memory tuning, custom ABAP refactoring, batch scheduling redesign, query optimization, and Fiori response-time improvements.
The Challenge
Slow Systems Hurt More Than Productivity
System performance issues don’t just frustrate users. They drive up operating costs, strain infrastructure, and limit your ability to scale. Worse, they can erode stakeholder trust and delay critical business decisions.
You’ve invested in SAP. Now it’s time to make it work at its full potential.
How we deliver
Our engagement model.
- 01
Step 1 — Measure, don't guess
SAT traces, SQL traces, HANA Plan Visualizer, ATC, Code Inspector. The actual picture, not the one your steering committee has been told for six months. The real bottleneck almost never lives where the rumor says it does.
- 02
Step 2 — Triage by dollars
Revenue-blocking transactions first. Batch windows next. Reports last. Quick wins flagged separately so something improves this week while the harder work runs in parallel.
- 03
Step 3 — Remediate at every layer
Code refactoring, index strategy, partitioning, parallel batch design, column-store tuning, archiving. We fix root causes, not symptoms — the Z-table that's dragging the order entry screen gets a real fix, not a faster server.
- 04
Step 4 — Leave monitoring behind
Permanent dashboards so your team sees regressions before users do. Optionally rolled into Managed Services for ongoing stewardship. Performance isn't a project — it's a habit.
Frequently asked questions
If users are experiencing delays, reporting issues, or inconsistent system behavior, it’s worth conducting a performance audit. Even well-built systems degrade over time.
Yes. Column-store optimization, partitioning strategy, delta-merge tuning, statistics, and CDS view design — both for the database itself and for the application patterns that access it.
Diagnostic phase is 2–4 weeks. Remediation depends on findings — from a few weeks for targeted hotspots to a multi-quarter program for full custom-code overhaul.
Both. ECC on AnyDB, ECC on HANA, S/4HANA on-premises, S/4HANA Cloud — different toolsets, same approach.

Client experience
“DEBCOR's white-glove approach to consulting isn't just a tagline — it's the reality of their service. They've been our trusted partner for many years because of the integrity of their approach. At our request, they cleaned up our technical debt and prepared us for S/4HANA. The migration only took four months — we were down for maybe a weekend, then back to business with no loss in revenue.”
