Overview

Once known for its traditional beverage with deep cultural roots, NutriNest has reinvented itself by blending tradition with innovation—offering over 40 health-focused products featuring superfoods like bird’s nest, ginseng, and sea cucumber. As the company’s product lines and customer base expanded rapidly, so did the pressure on its legacy systems. To support this growth and future-proof operations, NutriNest has partnered with Renova Cloud to modernize its ERP infrastructure by deploying SAP Business One (SAP B1) on Amazon Web Services (AWS), unlocking new levels of agility, performance, and cost efficiency.

Key Challenges

To further expand and ‘rejuvenate’ its customer base, NutriNest offers over 40 product lines developed through strong in-house R&D, focusing on delicious, affordable, and convenient products with eye-pleasing packaging. Despite the high demand for growth, the company never forsakes quality as its guiding compass. With over 650 employees, two ISO22000- and HACCP-certified factories, and a distribution network spanning 25,000 retail points across Vietnam, Taiwan, China, and Cambodia, NutriNest ensures highest quality and broad market reach.

As the company scaled both domestically and internationally, its existing IT infrastructure struggled to keep pace with growing operational complexity. To support continued growth, NutriNest needed a robust, scalable foundation for deploying SAP Business One (SAP B1)—one that could deliver high availability, strong performance, and long-term cost efficiency. At the same time, the company sought to reduce the burden of managing infrastructure, streamline operations, and improve system resilience through cloud-based technologies.

Meeting these goals required careful architectural planning: selecting the right cloud environment, optimizing SAP B1 performance, enabling disaster recovery, and ensuring the IT team could effectively manage and scale the system with minimal friction.

By leveraging Renova Cloud’s rich expertise in infrastructure modernization, NutriNest seeks to achieve:

  1. High availability and disaster-proof for SAP B1 on AWS.
  2. Achieve SAP B1’s performance benchmarks.
  3. Successful migration of existing data and configurations to the new AWS environment.
  4. Self-sustainable cloud operation and maintenance of the SAP B1 on AWS

Solution

To meet NutriNest’s goals, we implemented a cloud-first solution by deploying SAP B1 on AWS. The approach focused on delivering a customized, scalable, and secure infrastructure with the performance capabilities required for enterprise resource planning.

Architecture & Deployment

The tailored AWS architecture was designed specifically for SAP B1 workloads, which included:

  • Amazon EC2 instances optimized for high memory and compute requirements.
  • Amazon EBS for fast, low-latency disk storage to support real-time transaction processing.
  • Networking configurations that ensured consistent access and minimal latency.

Resilience and Monitoring

To achieve high availability, the system was deployed across multiple AWS Availability Zones. Disaster recovery was handled using AWS Backup, providing automated snapshots and recovery protocols.

For real-time monitoring and system health visibility, AWS CloudWatch was implemented. This allowed the IT team to track key metrics, set up alerts, and proactively respond to performance issues.

Security and Access Control

Security was one of the key priorities of this project. Therefore, AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) was configured to ensure role-based access control and enforce least-privilege principles. In addition, encryption at rest and in transit was applied across all components.

Testing, Migration, and Training

Thorough performance and compatibility testing ensured SAP B1 ran smoothly in the new environment. Following successful validation, existing data and configurations were migrated with zero data loss and minimal downtime.

Renova Cloud also delivered training sessions and documentation tailored to the unique operation of the NutriNest’s IT team, enabling them to operate and manage the system without external dependencies.

Benefits

Financial Benefits: Deploying SAP B1 on AWS reduces costs associated with maintaining on-premises infrastructure, including hardware, electricity, cooling, and physical space. Long-term savings are achieved through improved efficiency and scalability.

Operational Benefits: By moving to AWS, SAP B1 benefits from automated updates, seamless resource scaling, and centralized management tools, which simplify operations and reduce manual intervention. Enhanced disaster recovery and backup options further ensure reliable and smooth operations.

Performance Improvements: AWS’s optimized infrastructure ensures better performance for SAP B1, including faster query processing and real-time analytics. High-performance EC2 instances and EBS storage enable superior throughput and lower latency compared to traditional setups.

Conclusion

Through partnership with Renova Cloud, NutriNest has modernized its ERP system by deploying SAP Business One on AWS, supporting its local and international expansion. The cloud-based solution delivered a scalable, high-performance, and secure infrastructure tailored to the company’s operational needs, allowing NutriNest to achieve greater agility, reduce IT costs, and focus on innovation & growth.
