Case Study: Dangote Group achieves dramatic SAP HANA performance gains and multi‑cloud resilience with Nutanix

Dangote Group's Digital Transformation with Nutanix

Dangote Group, a leading Nigerian manufacturing conglomerate, relied on a centrally important SAP HANA environment but was constrained by an aging three‑tier infrastructure that caused latency, poor performance and difficulty managing workloads across on‑premises and cloud environments. The company needed a scalable, resilient solution to optimise SAP performance, enable seamless management between Nutanix and Azure, and ensure business continuity and near‑zero downtime.

Dangote implemented Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure with AHV and engaged Nutanix Expert Services, adding Nutanix Pulse, Calm and Beam and a robust disaster‑recovery design to simplify multi‑cloud operations. The result was dramatically improved SAP HANA performance, seamless workload management across Nutanix and Azure, far faster recoveries (for example, recovering 3TB in under three minutes), reduced downtime, greater operational resilience and measurable cost savings.
