SAP Solution: Intel Xeon

After Hana, Cloud and S/4, the next big topic at SAP is support in general.

Andreas Klaus Span is Director and Business Unit Executive for SAP Hana on Power and Cognitive Sales, IBM Power Systems EMEA, IBM Sales & Distribution, STG Sales, IBM Global Markets. He explains the options and benefits of the Power architecture for SAP Hana and S/4 in this E-3 interview.

With two new solutions, Fujitsu aims to make it easier to deploy particularly data-intensive applications through optimized management of scale-out Hana deployments.

A short interview with Hana busters Guido Hoepfner and Matthias Kneissl from Q-Partners.

Linux in the SAP community is not new. Everyone is familiar with the term "open source". Nevertheless, one can speak of a revolution. In a few years, the SAP community will be a different one - SAP will join the paradigm shift. There is no alternative!

No crystal ball is needed in the SAP community. The 2025 deadline will not be met, as all existing customers know by now. Hana and S/4 or SoH are not a technical release change. Z-functions have to be sorted out and employees trained. That takes time!

This is not a new chemical formula from Walldorf, but an abbreviation I created for Suite on Hana (SoH) and Hana on Power (HoP). Naturally, there is no such thing officially. But our interns got it up and running this summer. But it's not just Intel that's getting squeezed, VMware is also under pressure.

You have to understand, make ten out of one, let the license go, and make Hana the same, so SAP is rich, lose the R/3, out of hard and soft, that's what Jim says, make Suite on Hana, that's it, and ERP is one, and BW is none, that's Walldorf 101. (Freely adapted from Goethe)
