Multi-Terabyte Evaluation & Feasibility Test: Testing the Performance & Scalability of SAP's Business Intelligence Warehouse

Overview To help its customers align technology with business goals, SAP recently completed an evaluation of its SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW) solution. After conducting a survey of SAP BW customers to establish their current and future BI requirements, SAP designed a series of tests for SAP BW. These tests included building a 5.5TB data warehouse containing 1,1TB of business data, and simulating thousands of users executing many queries against the data. The objectives were to measure SAP BW's ability to build such a large data warehouse, and to deliver rapid response.
