Taming Big SAP Data Landscapes

Extending Dell’s comprehensive portfolio of SAP HANA TDI certified systems, the new Dell S5000 Series server, from six to 16-sockets and up to 24TB of memory, delivers performance and scale to organizations with large landscapes that want to deploy on-premises using shared infrastructure.

For many large organizations, SAP HANA offers the capabilities that are critical for operating in a modern, digital economy, including real-time processing, advanced analytics and insights gleaned from big data and the Internet of Things. Processing large data volumes, expected to increase by more than 21% CAGR over the next five years, organizations need an infrastructure solution that can scale with the demands of the business and enable them to grow for years in the future.

To keep up with this increasing amount of data, many organizations are making the transition to the cloud. However, some organizations needing to respond to data sovereignty and data residency constraints, or address application latency and data entanglement concerns, want to retain complete control over their systems and data. There are also organizations that want to continue to protect current investments in on-premises SAP infrastructure, tools and operational processes.

SAP HANA Tailored Datacenter Integration (TDI) solutions offer flexibility when integrating SAP HANA systems into existing data centers. This deployment approach enables organizations to choose their preferred hardware vendors and infrastructure from a list of supported SAP HANA hardware. Organizations can also leverage existing hardware and operation processes in their data centers.

To address these challenges, we have released the Dell S5000 Series server, exclusively for SAP HANA TDI. Powered by Intel® Xeon® Scalable (Cascade Lake) processors, the up-to-eight-socket Dell S5408 8U rack and the up-to-16-socket Dell S5416 21U rack are delivered as integrated, pre-configured systems for quicker deployment and faster time to value.
