IBM’s new Power Systems and SAP HANA make a great solution.
Carvechi Technology a strategic OEM partner with SAP and IBM refurbished systems make a perfect opportunity for realizing the real value of SAP HANA. Our service and managed solution division has experience with deploying SAP HANA and IBM Power Systems in the Americas.
SAP and IBM share a long history dating back to the very roots of SAP, and there alliance got even closer with two new IBM Power Systems server configurations tailored specifically for SAP’s Hana in-memory data platform.
SAP’s Hana is already supported across all POWER8 servers from IBM. The new series, which will launch initially in two configurations targeting data warehouses of different sizes, aims to offer tailored support of SAP Business Warehouse version 7.31 or higher.
“The commodity servers used today by many organizations are increasingly stretched to their limits by new workloads, in the cloud or on premises,” said Doug Balog, general manager of IBM Power Systems.
The first new offering is based on the IBM Power Systems S824, with 24 POWER8 processor cores and up to 1TB of memory; it’s designed primarily for the SAP Business Warehouse application running on SAP Hana, with databases up to 512GB in compressed size. The second new entry, based on the IBM Power Systems E870 with 40 POWER8 cores and up to 2TB of memory, targets databases up to 1TB in compressed size.
SAP reports run significantly faster when using SAP Hana on IBM Power, and Carvechi Technology has the support, installation and ability to sell both products to our customers in the Americas.
