HP Touts AppSystem for
SAP HANA - Delivers Scalability, Availability, Expertise
December 14, 2011
 The
offerings speed and simplify application transactions and analysis,
while enabling organizations to use their data faster for informed
decision making.
The newest addition to the portfolio of HP AppSystem for SAP HANA is a
highly scalable solution. It is built on an HP Converged Infrastructure
that includes HP ProLiant BladeSystem servers and the HP X9300 IBRIX
Network Storage System with HP P6500 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA). It
delivers high availability and storage capacity for mission-critical
workloads running on SAP application software, enabling clients to run
business-critical applications.
The solution can be easily integrated with an existing implementation of
SAP Business Suite software or the SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW)
component to accelerate time to decision. Other client benefits include:
- Investment protection by rapidly
scaling to handle at least 640 cores and 8 terabytes (TB) of memory.
- Scalable performance and storage
capacity of up to 16 petabytes with the HP X9300
IBRIX Network Storage System. It also provides scalable snapshots, 24/7
background data integrity validation and write-once, read-many (WORM)
storage to meet data protection and tiered storage requirements for SAP
HANA.
- High performance and availability
with HP P6500 EVA, a fifth-generation enterprise storage system that is
20 to 30 percent easier to manage than competitive offerings and
includes built-in thin provisioning with dynamic storage tiering.
- Increased resiliency, scalability
and efficiency of HP ProLiant BL680 G7 blade servers offer support for
up to eight times the capacity of a single-node solution. The blade
servers feature industry-leading density; maximized input-output, memory
and CPU capacity while utilizing DRAM Double Device Data Correction (DDDC);
and HP Memory Quarantine to minimize the impact of unplanned downtime.
To assist clients in
transitioning from SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW) Accelerator
software environments to SAP HANA, HP is offering the following
services:
-
 HP
Advanced Information Services for SAP HANA provide detailed business and
financial benefit analysis to support rapid decision making. Fast Start
Services get clients up and running quickly; Design Services help
clients build a comprehensive, in-memory analytical solution; and
Implementation Services facilitate deployment.
- HP Technology Services offer deep
expertise in SAP applications, including SAP NetWeaver BW Accelerator
and SAP HANA, providing clients with a single point of contact for
upgrading or migrating to SAP HANA.
- Asset Recovery Services and
Migration Assistance Services from HP Financial Services – the company’s
leasing and life cycle asset management subsidiary – to safely, easily
and cost-effectively retire old, unneeded IT equipment.
“Clients need faster
insight from their vast amounts of information,” said Paul Miller, vice
president, Converged Systems, HP. “The HP AppSystem for SAP HANA,
together with HP consulting experts, delivers simplicity, performance
and faster time-to-value in a turnkey solution.”
HP Advanced Information Services for SAP HANA and HP Technology Services
