VMware Infrastructure for SAP Enterprise Applications - Use Cases

Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview Virtualization allows the user to run multiple applications and operating systems independently on a single server. Administrators can quickly move workloads from one virtual workspace to another - easily prioritizing business needs while maximizing server resources. Flexibility in the allocation of computing capacity allows the consolidation of applications and servers. This eases IT management requirements and expenses and Dell's "Pay-as-you-grow" Scalable Enterprise model can help the user control computing costs. SAP has more than 38,000 customers in 120 countries. This represents 100,600 SAP installations for more than 12 million users. The collaboration between VMware, AMD, and Dell provides unique value to the SAP customers. VMware, AMD and Dell have received requests from customers to understand how virtualization can play a role within SAP deployments.
