Case Study: SAP achieves faster, more flexible HANA cloud deployments with NetApp

Create the cloud of choice for HANA Enterprise Cloud customers

SAP was seeking an infrastructure partner in 2013 to support the performance, flexibility, and reliability requirements for its new managed cloud offering, the HANA Enterprise Cloud. To solve this challenge, the company turned to its long-time innovation partner, NetApp.

The solution implemented by NetApp involved deploying its AFF all-flash arrays and Azure NetApp Files. This allowed SAP's customers to run applications more quickly and inexpensively while positioning them to respond rapidly to technology changes. The results included deployments that were 30-40% faster and the successful management of 170 petabytes of SAP data on NetApp systems.
