ISUG TECH - Independent SAP Technical User Group

Hello ISUG Fans,

It is with great sadness that we have to close ISUG-TECH due to lack of funds to operate as the legal entity that it is today. The Board has worked diligently trying to operate the organization on a shoe-string budget but expenses for insurance, website, zoom, email services, mailbox, taxes, and fees are more then we can afford via memberships. The Board of Directors voted on April 25, 2024 to dissolve ISUG as a CA non-profit mutual benefit corporation at the end of the current fiscal year (which is June 2024). We had a Special Call meeting with the active members on June 27,2024 to vote on the matter and it passed with a majority vote. Both the April 25 and June 27 votes met their respective quorums. Thus the Board is taking the appropriate legal steps to close the organization. We have legal and CPA fees we must pay with the remaining expenses. We will reimburse any current paid member their pro-rated membership dues once all other financial obligations are met.

There is a group of Board members that are passionate about continuing the mission of ISUG but under a new format that would be not so expensive. As they continue to work forward in planning what the new ISUG would look like, we plan to keep you informed and invite you to join it.

Sincerely,
Cynthia Gill
ISUG-TECH President

June Webcast:
Deep Dive on Data Assurance
June 7, 2023 at 1:00pm ET

You've setup your HADR pair using the Always-On option, so how to you know if the source and target are in-sync? Following up on May's ISUG webinar,

June's session will be a technical deep-dive into SAP Data Assurance, a powerful (and handy!) tool that you can use to compare, validate, and (optionally) re-synchronize data / schemas between your replicated databases, without having to
re-materialize. In this webcast, we will have a brief overview of Data Assurance, followed by a deep dive into best practices and tips surrounding the architecture, setup, configuration, administration, and monitoring of a typical Data Assurance installation.
