SAP recognizes that HCI is one of the fastest-growing enterprise architectures in the industry,” said Martin Heisig, head, technology innovation network, SAP HANA. “When deploying SAP S/4HANA on VMware HCI, customers are able to gain tremendous benefit from the latest HW/SW technologies to drive scalability and lower operational costs for SAP HANA deployments.

The company’s collaboration with VMware, Inc. delivers an alternative to the traditional FC SAN-based virtualization infrastructure, which is known for its complexity and interoperability challenges. HCI powered by VMware vSAN brings compute, storage, and the hypervisor together into a single system to reduce data center complexity and increase scalability. This approach overcomes the obstacles of conventional architectures, especially SAN and NAS storage, including their networking challenges or issues. HCI uses DAS in a SDS architecture backed by the growth of storage-dense servers and high-performance SSDs.

VMWare is pleased to partner with Supermicro to bring the latest SAP HANA certified platforms based on VMware vSAN,” said Lee Caswell, VP, marketing HCI business unit, VMware. “High-performance databases are the latest workloads to embrace the undeniable price-performance of HCI. With VMware vSAN and Supermicro, customers can run their largest SAP HANA dev ops and production deployments with up to 64 nodes and a maximum of 192TB of memory.
