Case Study: JK Tyre achieves agile IT, 60–70% faster provisioning and reduced datacentre footprint with VMware vSphere for SAP HANA

VMware helped JK Tyre to migrate seamlessly from Oracle database to SAP HANA running on a virtualized platform

JK Tyre & Industries Limited, a leading Indian tyre manufacturer with annual production over 20 million tyres and customers in 80 countries, needed to modernize its SAP ERP while contending with complex legacy systems. The company’s goals were to reduce datacentre hardware footprint, migrate from Oracle to SAP HANA on a virtualized platform, and achieve high availability and faster processing of large data volumes.

JK Tyre implemented VMware vSphere Enterprise Edition to virtualize SAP HANA. The deployment cut application provisioning time by 60–70%, consolidated hardware to shrink the datacentre footprint and lower power costs, and delivered better availability and on‑demand resource provisioning—making IT more agile and responsive.
