Hi Lumira Users!
We would like to start open conversation with you about our future plan to phase
out support for Lumira for Windows 32-bit as early as 2015. The intent of
this discussion is to understand better about how this might impact you and
allow both SAP and you as customers to make adequate plans.
We are working on a number of innovation initiatives to enhance analytical
capabilities and performance of Lumira. It would make most sense to focus
our effort on 64-bit as well to re-direct future cost of maintaining multiple
versions of software to delivering on your business requirements. We are
also noticing increasing number of software or technologies we require having
incompatibility issues or limitations on 32-bit platforms.
We are considering phasing out 32 bit support in 2H of 2015. Hence, I am reaching
out to you for early input. Can you share with us how this plan impacts your
existing or planned Lumira adoption?
- Are you currently or planning to go live with Lumira
on 32-bit? What is the size of current users? - When do you think would be the earliest we can
consider phasing out 32-bit support? - If your organization is standardized on
32-bit, do you have plans by which you expect to move your users to 64-bit
hardware/OS? When? - Any other feedback for consideration?
Please eel free torespond publicly or privately.
Thank you!
Sharon
