THE WHY OF REPLATFORMING SAP ONTO

VBLOCKTM SYSTEMS
TYPICAL LANDSCAPE REFRESH TRIGGERS
The business grows
This creates the need for more SAP instances, which creates need for more
network, servers and storage
New business, products, or services
Requires new SAP application modules which equals more infrastructure
Consolidation of business units, M&A
Involves re-architecting SAP applications and redesign of SAP infrastructure
SAP application upgrades
New functionality requires yet again more infrastructure or the impetus to redesign
the infrastructure
Adding new SAP application
If building new, might as well be all virtual
Hardware refresh cycle
Typically every 3-4 years

STANDARDIZING SAP SERVICES DELIVERY

With Infrastructure Service Life Cycle Management
Define and create the infrastructure
service
Create
Configure Vblock platform components

and make available to be consumed
Decomission
Provision/Activate
Optimize Processes
Deactivate/Release
Change
Add or remove infrastructure components

to dynamically respond to business needs
Deactivate a service or release all blade
resources from a service to reassign
elsewhere
De-provision Vblock platform components
and their dependencies, returning all
resources to available pools
Yes, you can build this yourself if your management

thinks you should be your own SI for SAP?

Bare-metal deployment must comply with the
following requirements
Adheres to VCE published, tested, and validated
hardware and software components
Application and operating system must be included
in the published support matrices for tested Vblock
System software
For both compute and storage components

Cisco UCS Blade Options
VCE offers a range of Cisco UCS B-Series blade servers within each Vblock
The table below shows a list of the most commonly used blades for SAP solutions
SAPS shown are for both bare metal blade and showing reduction due to virtualisation overhead
vCPU are mapped to threads, so effective SAPS/thread also show
Blade options with large memory configuration generally chosen as SAP is increasingly memory intensive
