Key Takeaways
⇨ The increasing complexity of SAP workloads requires effective management tools, as manual configuration can introduce human error and affect system performance.
⇨ Google Cloud's Workload Manager offers automated, rule-based analysis to identify misconfigurations and deviations from best practices, simplifying SAP workload management.
⇨ By utilizing Workload Manager, organizations can receive evaluation reports and notifications, allowing them to proactively address issues and maintain competitiveness in software innovation.
With each passing SAP edition, the potential for a more complex SAP workload grows higher. The versatility of the SAP platform means the types of workload can range anywhere from simple statements to long-running data-loading jobs. However, like all modern software, the more complex a digital process becomes, the harder it is to manage effectively.
Workloads need to be balanced with whatever available resources are on hand. Google Cloud’s Workload Manager can provide users with automated, rule-based analysis that can help identify any misconfigurations and deviations from best business practices, helping simplify the complex configurations that come with SAP workloads.
Configuring such large scale SAP workloads in Google Cloud can be a difficult task; infrastructure, operating systems, app settings and continuously evolving best practices contribute to the challenge. By relying on manual efforts for configuration, organizations open themselves up to human error that can ultimately impact SAP system performance and business operations.
Effective workload management tools, like Google Cloud’s Workload Manager, can provide an intelligent, rule-based evaluation service. This kind of validation service automatically compares and assesses a firm’s SAP systems against built-in best practices from Google Cloud, SAP and other operation system vendors. The SAP rule catalog in particular is frequently updated to match the quick pace of evolving best practices.
Once Workload Manager has completed the scan of a firm’s SAP systems, an evaluation report is pulled together that can provide a summary of the results, allowing for users to drill down and truly identify which resources passed and failed the best practices and misconfigurations checks. Workload Manager can also send email notifications for any configured triggers, letting users action faults in a speedy fashion.
Workload Manager can help reduce the stress of SAP on Google Cloud workload configurations by helping identify any errors or deviations from best practices. By investing in Google Cloud’s workload solution, organizations can remain competitive by taking a proactive approach to software innovation.
