Make the most of virtualizing your SAP infrastructure. Start your private cloud. With SAP applications built on FlexPod™, it’s easier, faster, and safer than you might have thought.
This solution brings the power of the FlexPod
concept to SAP customers and enables a safe transition to the
cloud. FlexPod is a unified, pretested, and validated data center
solution built on a flexible and secure shared IT infrastructure
using leading technology from NetApp, Cisco, and VMware.
FlexPod improves business agility by
providing application and data mobility and by accelerating SAP
lifecycle management. Integrated data protection across the entire
stack helps increase the availability of SAP in the cloud, while
secure multi-tenancy delivers isolated SAP landscapes for a variety
of use cases:
- Transition smoothly with a modular architecture
- Transform your SAP organization into a service center
- Accelerate your SAP lifecycle management
Standardization and automation reduce the
risk of running SAP landscapes in a cloud and contribute to an
overall lower TCO. The shared IT infrastructure at the core of
FlexPod helps you to maximize efficiency and decrease costs through
optimized asset utilization.
Midsize and enterprise customers as well as
service providers benefit from accelerating their SAP lifecycle
management. Provisioning complete landscapes and systems can be
done in a fraction of the time compared to traditional copy
processes. Deprovisioning systems can be done with just a mouse
click.
Through its unified, pretested, and validated
design, the FlexPod data center solution shortens purchase and
sales cycles and simplifies deployment. Its future-proof
Ethernet-based network fits right into your current infrastructure,
eliminating the cost of replacing your existing technology and
protecting your investments.
The modular solution design allows flexible
starting points. You can start small with a single tenant and add
other tenants later. The solution is designed to scale securely to
any size. And it paves the way to transform your SAP environment
into a service center for your company.
