We’re using Equinix colocation datacenter / to host these hardware / which sit behind Azure IaaS/VNET. And what is SAP HANA on Azure Large Instances offering ? This is not regular Azure VM/, but SAP certified purpose built / HANA hardware infrastructure hosted in Azure.
SAP ECC ARCHITECTURE SERIES
With Azure M Series VM / to be released and certified by SAP this calendar year, / # of SAPS that azure can run / will significantly increase / and we’ll be able to cover / even more SAP on Any DB. With this scalability / and comprehensive OS/DB support / Azure D and G Series VM can run / > 90% of world’s SAP production systems.
So more SAPS / more powerfully the infrastructure can run SAP transactions.
SAPS is the indicator to measure / processing power /of SAP sales and distribution transactions. SAP SD benchmark shows Azure VM can run / up to 41k SAPS with 2-tier / which is a single VM / and up to 350k SAPS with 3-tier / which is multiple VMs with application server scale out. Also, our support of DB2/ASE with SUSE Linux and Red Hat Linux / is compelling for customers / currently running UNIX/DB2/ASE / and are open to OS migration. Note that there’s no roadmap for certification / for Oracle and Red Hat and SUSE anytime soon / due to non-technical reason from Oracle.
SAP ECC ARCHITECTURE WINDOWS
SAP OS migration from UNIX to Windows / or Oracle Linux is very common.
While Windows/SQL is the most mature OS/DB platform to run SAP on Azure, / our support of Oracle database / together with Windows or Oracle Linux / is another great option / for those currently running SAP on UNIX/Oracle platform. Azure supports all SAP certified database / including Oracle, DB2, ASE and MaxDB / with a variety of OS choices including Linux. So it’s not always mandatory for us Microsoft / to check customer’s SAP versions. Most of SAP customers are very likely to be running/ latest versions / – such as SAP Business Suite 6 and NetWeaver 7 / because SAP doesn’t support anything older than that / in the first place. Azure can run all kinds of SAP applications with Any DB / – SAP Business Suite including ECC/ERP, SCM, HCM, All-in-one, NetWeaver including / BW, Portal, PI/XI/EAI, Solution Manager, Business Objects and Business One ERP.
