Introduction
The technology world is becoming hybrid. Enterprises are trying to figure out the best way to use the cloud for better business strategies and outcomes. Although there is a recognition of the advantages of cloud such as the consumption-based model and pay-as-you-go pricing, there is still a desire to keep the majority of their critical data on-premises. This is why a hybrid cloud strategy is leading the IT transformation. Going forward, data will not reside at just one location but will be spread across the edge, the core, and the cloud. Managing this data can become a daunting task if the same siloed applications, management interfaces, and processes are used. As a result, there is a need to have a unified edge-to-core data infrastructure and management that delivers cloud-like experience wherever data lives.
Along with this advancement, SAP® is driving its focus toward what it calls the Intelligent Enterprise. SAP has recently launched the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), which is the platform for the Intelligent Enterprise. SAP BTP offers a portfolio of integrated products and services in the areas of database and data management, analytics, application development, and integration and intelligent technologies. SAP aims to embed machine learning and artificial intelligence in SAP applications so that enterprises can continue to learn and adapt as the data landscape changes, providing insights and patterns to make the right decisions at the right time. SAP HANA® is at the forefront of SAP BTP as the main database and data management solution.
To achieve this advancement, enterprises need to make sure that their underlying infrastructure that runs SAP HANA complements the capabilities of SAP applications. The underlying infrastructure should support the seamless identification, analysis, transactions, prioritization, and recommendations provided by the applications in the most efficient and intelligent way possible. SAP HANA requires storage to tackle a wide range of I/O so arrays can achieve the desired performance levels and to scale with efficiency. Most storage offerings can accomplish this task if loaded up with a large number of drives. The question then becomes how efficiently an array can deliver the necessary performance and scalability.
HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is the ideal storage solution for the requirements of SAP. HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is an All-NVMe storage system that delivers extreme latency-sensitive performance with the highest order of reliability and a 100% data availability guarantee for mission-critical SAP HANA environments.1 HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 offers cloud-native management with the Data Services Cloud Console. The Data Services Cloud Console enables you to access and utilize data infrastructure on demand and as a service regardless of whether your data resides on the edge, in the core, or in the cloud. It enables you focus on business innovations rather than managing siloed pieces of infrastructure.
