DXC relaunches SAP Fast RISE offering in Mexico, powered by Microsoft Azure, to accelerate secure and local digital transformation
MEXICO CITY, June 2, 2025 /CNW/ - DXC Technology, a leading Fortune 500 global technology services provider, today announced the relaunch of its DXC Fast RISE with SAP service in Mexico. This initiative gains new momentum following the recent availability of RISE with SAP, now hosted on Microsoft Azure, expanding opportunities to accelerate a cloud-based economy in Mexico through Microsoft's hyperscale datacenter region: Central Mexico.
This announcement marks a significant milestone for Mexican organizations looking to migrate their enterprise core to the cloud—particularly in highly regulated sectors such as banking, insurance, energy, and government, where local data residency is a critical requirement. By combining DXC's global experience with Microsoft Azure's local infrastructure, Mexican companies can now transform their systems more rapidly and with less complexity. With industry-specific expertise, DXC offers end-to-end cloud migration for SAP environments—enabling seamless migration, business process optimization, application management, and continuous improvement of SAP workloads.
"With DXC Fast RISE with SAP, our customers in Mexico can migrate to SAP S/4HANA Cloud in less than 12 months through a clear, simplified, and well-structured path. Beyond go-live, we continue to support them by helping manage and optimize their SAP environment on an ongoing basis — enabling them to reduce operational costs, free up key resources, and prepare their platform to scale with AI and automation," said Eduardo Sarmiento, Managing Director of DXC Technology Mexico.
"We see a huge opportunity for businesses to look to the cloud as a driver of competitiveness in the era of AI. This collaboration between SAP and Microsoft addresses specific needs in the Mexican market, offering greater control over critical workloads with data hosted locally," said Paola Becerra, Managing Director of SAP Mexico.
"The Mexico Central data center region is the first to offer RISE with SAP on Azure, unlocking new opportunities for business and innovation. With data residing in Mexican territory, we help organizations access more agile and efficient ways of working," said Rafael Sánchez, President and General Manager of Microsoft Mexico.
"The Microsoft datacenter region in Central Mexico is the first in the cloud to provide RISE with SAP on Azure Mexico, enabling new opportunities for business and innovation. Additionally, as the first hyperscale datacenter region in the country, we help keep data within national borders while enabling more agile and efficient ways of working," said Rafael Sánchez, President and General Manager of Microsoft Mexico.
This relaunch in Mexico builds on a decades-long global partnership between DXC and SAP, which spans more than 1,000 clients across industries including financial services, manufacturing, healthcare, utilities, and the public sector. DXC's global team of 15,000+ SAP professionals, engineers, and industry experts deliver SAP-based solutions that help customers simplify, scale, and innovate through end-to-end SAP transformation strategies.
DXC Fast RISE with SAP has already been successfully implemented in companies such as Energy Harbor in the U.S. and Whitehaven Coal in Australia — helping reduce implementation times, optimize critical processes, and prepare these organizations to fully harness the potential of artificial intelligence in their future operations.

One leader will be noticeably absent at Canada's G7 leaders summit
It's almost time to start the party. The invitations have been sent. But someone will be noticeably absent when G7 leaders gather next week in Alberta. Despite talk of a reset in relations and a recent friendly telephone call between foreign ministers, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi won't be among those welcomed to the G7 leaders meeting in Kananaskis next week. Given that it's the first time since 2018—the last time Canada hosted the annual international summit—that India has been left off the guestlist, it's being interpreted rightly or wrongly as a deliberate snub. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW A spokesperson for Global Affairs Minister Anita Anand said Prime Minister Mark Carney's office was responsible for the invites to a G7 leaders' summit. Carney's press office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In addition to the leaders of the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Japan, this year's G7 host, Carney, has invited Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum; Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva; South African President Cyril Ramaphosa (whose country holds this year's G20 presidency); and his newly re-elected Australian counterpart, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. But not the person steering one of the world's largest economies, despite Carney describing the Canada-India relationship as 'incredibly important' and one that he hoped to rebuild as he seeks to expand Canadian trade partners. 'There are strains on that relationship that we didn't cause,' he said in the final days of the recent election. 'But there is a path forward to address those with mutual respect and to build out.' Leaving Modi's name off Canada's G7 guest list shouldn't be seen as contradicting Carney's earlier statements about rebuilding the bilateral bonds. Canada desperately needs better friendships and deeper, richer trading relationships to blunt the impact of American trade tariffs. Rather, it is a reminder of the reality that there is no quick fix for the deeply damaged relationship between Ottawa and New Delhi. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW The Ottawa-New Delhi relationship has been strained for years due to complaints that former prime minister Justin Trudeau's Liberals were too easy on the Sikh separatist movement in Canada and refused to act against individuals wanted in India as terrorists and outlaws. That feud went public following Trudeau's 2018 visit to India, but the relationship tanked after Trudeau alleged in the House of Commons that Indian government officials had a hand in the 2023 killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. An immigrant to Canada, Nijjar helped organized a referendum to create a separate Sikh homeland in India's Punjab province and was suspected of leading the Khalistan Tiger Force, a designated terrorist group in India. He was shot and killed in the parking lot of a Sikh temple in Surrey, B.C. on June 18, 2023. Four men, all Indian nationals who came to Canada on temporary visas, were arrested in May 2024 in connection of the killing. Their cases have not yet been heard in court. Last October, Canada expelled six Indian diplomats and consular officials it said were linked to 'a targeted campaign against Canadian citizens.' ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW The Toronto-based Sikh Federation of Canada last month urged Ottawa to keep India off the G7 guestlist 'until India substantially cooperates with criminal investigations in Canada, and makes other demonstrable reforms.' Indian news reports cited the risk of protests by Sikh activists as a reason that Modi would likely not come to Canada even if he received a last-minute invite. The Times of India noted that a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the G7 summit would have been an opportunity to officially reset the Canada-India relationship. For Modi, the annual G7 invitations provide a valuable opportunity to strut on the world stage. His absence from Kananaskis, his opposition critics say, is an indicator his inability to exert Indian influence and its priorities. 'Whatever spin is given to it, the fact is that this is yet another major diplomatic blunder,' Jairam Ramesh, the Indian National Congress' general secretary for communications, wrote on X. Last weekend, former Conservative prime minister Stephen Harper called for the two countries to get over their dispute in a speech that made no mention of the alleged politically motivated killing on Canadian soil. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW 'There is no reason why countries like Canada and India cannot be those enlightened voices working together, which we can do and should do by putting our recent disputes behind us,' he said, according to the Canadian Press, which obtained a recording of the speech. The two governments have taken baby steps in that direction. Global Affairs Minister Anita Anand recently spoke by telephone with Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, where, in the briefest of summaries, Jaishankar said they 'discussed the prospects of Canada-India ties.' Anand described the call as a 'productive discussion … on strengthening Canada–India ties, deepening our economic cooperation, and advancing shared priorities.' Asked in a Globe and Mail interview if this was the prelude to the two countries reinstating their respective high commissioners and restoring full diplomatic ties, Anand said: 'We are certainly taking it one step at a time.'
