Last position:
ERP Program Manager at Fiserv
The customer is undergoing a comprehensive transformation. All SAP ECC landscapes worldwide are being migrated to SAP S/4HANA, with the goal of introducing a standard template worldwide.
The program also includes the “RISE with SAP” migration and modernization program, which may involve migrating the landscapes of selected country installations to the SAP Private Cloud.
On the stakeholder side, the program reporting line extends to the company’s executive board and that of the implementation partner.
Fiserv Germany’s ERP landscape currently includes several non-standard SAP tools and applications that extend the functionality of the ECC environment and can often be integrated into downstream systems. As part of the transition to SAP S/4HANA, it is essential to assess the core functionality, integration points and future viability of these applications in order to determine their alignment with the target architecture.
The focus of the work is on providing expert advice and assessment to define the scope, strategy and roadmap for transitioning Fiserv Germany’s SAP ECC system to SAP S/4HANA.
The recommended best practices from SAP are followed and a structured approach is used to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption while maximizing business value.
This assessment forms the basis for a successful SAP S/4HANA transformation and ensures alignment with industry best practices, regulatory compliance and future scalability.
Migration Strategy Definition – assessment of available transition approaches based on business objectives, technical feasibility and SAP Best Practices.
Technical Readiness Assessment – conducting a system analysis to assess compatibility, custom code impact, data volume management, integration points and infrastructure readiness for SAP S/4HANA.
Business Process Impact Analysis – reviewing the latest business process documentation to define the scope and effort required to implement the necessary functions in SAP S/4HANA and to identify opportunities for process optimization.
Roadmap for Non-SAP Systems and Applications – assessment of third-party and legacy applications regarding their integration with SAP S/4HANA and recommendation of consolidation, migration or replacement strategies.
Deployment & Implementation Planning – defining a phased approach for implementation, including project schedules, risk mitigation strategies and key milestones aligned with business priorities.
This transformation takes place in phases: the Discovery phase leads to the Explore phase, which is followed by the Design phase and finally implementation.

About the technology
What IIS does
Microsoft Internet Information Services, commonly called IIS, is a web server and application platform for Windows Server. It hosts websites, REST APIs, web services and enterprise applications, with native support for ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core and other HTTP workloads. IIS also handles request processing, TLS termination, authentication, logging and application isolation.
Hosting architecture
IIS organizes sites, applications, virtual directories and application pools within a Windows Server environment. Specialists configure bindings for HTTP and HTTPS, host headers, ports, worker processes and recycling rules. They also plan web farms, reverse-proxy patterns and shared configuration when an application must run across several servers.
Ecosystem and tooling
IIS work often connects Microsoft technologies with operational tooling:
- Windows Server, Active Directory and Group Policy
- ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core and .NET hosting bundles
- PowerShell, Web Deploy and configuration files
- SQL Server, Azure services and load balancers
- Certificates, SSO, monitoring and centralized logs
The surrounding stack matters because a web server rarely operates in isolation. Strong specialists understand how application releases, DNS, firewalls and identity services affect IIS behavior.
When companies need help
Companies bring in freelance expertise when an IIS environment must be modernized, stabilized or prepared for a critical release. Typical assignments include:
- Migrating websites from legacy Windows servers
- Moving classic ASP.NET applications to new infrastructure
- Troubleshooting 5xx errors, slow requests and recycling issues
- Automating deployments with PowerShell or Web Deploy
- Hardening TLS, permissions and exposed endpoints
In Germany, specialists may work remotely with internal IT teams or on site when access controls, regulated operations or physical infrastructure require close coordination.
What strong specialists deliver
A capable IIS professional starts with the application, traffic pattern and operational constraints rather than applying generic settings. They produce repeatable configuration, clear runbooks, tested rollback steps and useful logs. They distinguish application faults from server, network, certificate and identity problems, then explain the cause in terms that both technical and business stakeholders can use.
Choosing the right profile
Look for experience with the IIS version, Windows Server environment and application framework used in the project. Ask how the specialist approaches permissions, application pools, failed-request tracing, certificate renewal and deployment recovery. For remote collaboration, confirm documentation habits, German or English communication needs and the ability to coordinate with security, infrastructure and application teams. Quality shows in controlled changes, measurable diagnostics and a secure design that remains maintainable after handover.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Microsoft IIS — answered in short.
Microsoft IIS is used to host websites, APIs, web services and enterprise applications on Windows Server. It can manage HTTPS bindings, authentication, request routing, application pools, logging and deployment for workloads such as ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core.
IIS is closely integrated with Windows Server, Active Directory, ASP.NET and Microsoft management tools. Apache and Nginx are often chosen for broader operating-system flexibility or specific proxy and performance patterns, while the right option depends on the application stack, team skills and hosting environment.
A strong IIS specialist commonly works with Windows Server, PowerShell, DNS, TLS certificates, firewalls and identity services. Experience with .NET hosting, SQL Server, Azure, load balancing, monitoring and Web Deploy is also valuable for end-to-end delivery.
The required depth depends on the assignment. A simple site migration may need focused configuration and testing, while a high-availability environment or legacy ASP.NET modernization calls for strong knowledge of application pools, tracing, security controls, automation and rollback planning.
Internet Information Services can often be managed remotely through approved administration channels, scripts and shared documentation. On-site work may still be useful when systems are isolated, access policies are strict or the specialist must coordinate directly with an infrastructure team in Germany.
Bring in an IIS freelancer when releases are unreliable, a Windows hosting environment needs migration, or internal teams cannot isolate recurring errors. A specialist can also help before a major launch, during security hardening or when deployment and monitoring need to become repeatable.
Ask for a concrete explanation of how they would diagnose slow requests, failed application pools, certificate errors and HTTP 500 responses. Strong IIS professionals describe evidence-based troubleshooting, least-privilege access, tested changes, clear documentation and a safe recovery path.
An IIS freelancer may deliver a configured site, application-pool design, deployment process, certificate setup, monitoring rules or migration plan. The engagement should also leave behind tested documentation, secure permissions and practical handover guidance for the people who will operate the environment.
