Data center transformation with hyper-converged infrastructure for sap hana

April 8, 2019

SAP is responding to customer demands for extremely flexible and money-saving IT concepts and is certifying hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI) for SAP HANA®. Fujitsu is one of the first manufacturers to have a 4-socket system certified by SAP for VMware vSAN. This white paper provides an overview of the solution and outlines the criteria that businesses that use SAP solutions should keep in mind when running productive HCI environments. Fujitsu is one of the first manufacturers to receive SAP certification of a hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) based on VMware vSAN with a 4-socket server for SAP HANA. The FUJITSU Integrated System PRIMEFLEX for VMware vSAN is based on VMware vSphere, the leading virtualization platform. The native vSAN in vSphere is capable of using all 4 CPU sockets and the 6 TB of memory in a PRIMERGY RX4770 M4 server when running SAP HANA. In other words, most customers can run their SAP HANA production databases with only one node. PRIMEFLEX for VMware vSAN thus offers the highest levels of performance and cost-effectiveness for software-defined SAP operation.

Accelerate your hybrid cloud migration with Google Cloud VMware Engine

whitePaper | November 23, 2022

The pandemic put strong pressures on organizations to modernize their infrastructure. The sudden rush of remote workers using virtual desktop infrastructure has resulted in surges and strains within current IT infrastructure. Organizations then were faced with a difficult choice: continue operations with slow, and at times insufficient capacity to support its workers, or upgrade their IT infrastructure. Upgrading IT infrastructure provides its own challenges: on-prem upgrades are an expensive endeavor and a considerable effort must be put into provisioning the right amount of hardware. Under-provisioning could potentially result in disruptions to operations and over-provisioning would result in wasted expenses. The other option is migrating to the cloud, which although does allow for elasticity with provisioning, does have challenges in the massive, timeand resource-intensive process of replacing legacy systems with cloud-based SaaS enterprise software.

Virtualization Defined - Eight Different Ways

whitePaper | October 4, 2021

Virtualization as a concept is not new; computational environment virtualization has been around since the first mainframe systems. But recently, the term “virtualization” has become ubiquitous, representing any type of process obfuscation where a process is somehow removed from its physical operating environment. Because of this ambiguity, virtualization can almost be applied to any and all parts of an IT infrastructure. For example, mobile device emulators are a form of virtualization because the hardware platform normally required to run the mobile operating system has been emulated, removing the OS binding from the hardware it was written for. But this is just one example of one type of virtualization; there are many defi nitions of the term “virtualization” fl oating around in the current lexicon, and all (or at least most) of them are correct, which can be quite confusing.
