SNP Poland, SAP Services Provider, Selecting HPE

SNP Poland Sp. z o.o, a SAP services provider, is expanding its customer offerings thanks to advanced storage services from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP.

The new capabilities, delivered through HPE GreenLake edge to cloud platform, will allow SNP Poland to enhance its built-in high storage availability while ensuring BC and non-disruptive operations for its European customers by implementing a MetroCluster solution based on HPE Primera, for mission-critical storage.

SNP Poland provides a range of implementations, development and maintenance of SAP systems. It also provides IT security and software development services. Employing over 400 people, it has nearly 2,000 completed SAP and other IT projects. The company was founded in 1995 and is part of SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner SE (SNP Group) – a provider of solutions for the transformation of SAP environments.

To further enhance its offering and reduce time to market for managed SAP services, SNP Poland chose Primera, an intelligent storage for missions-critical applications, to be installed in two of its data centers to deliver superior simplicity and enhanced data protection and availability. Powered by the intelligence of HPE Infosight predictive analytics embedded into Primera, HPE will help the company eliminate any unforeseen disruptions by helping to ensure a secure, always-on and agile data environment for SNP’s customers.

Additionally, the GreenLake cloud platform will enable SNP Poland to respond to changing customer needs and accelerate time to value for new and expanded service offerings.

Furthermore, GreenLake Central provides SNP with a platform to manage costs, utilization, compliance, and security across its entire multi-cloud estate – through a single pane of glass. This brings the complete cloud experience to the SNP’s data centers and simplifies the management of the entire operational cycle.
