3 Improving SAP IT With Proven Solutions SAP Admin Policy-Based SAP Performance Enhanced SAP Backup, Recovery Non-Stop SAP Data Access Cloud Infrastructure Compute 3X Faster Processes 40% Faster Backup 10X More Efficient SAP Replication Network FAST Data Domain ERM/LVM & VPLEX IT Admin Storage 25% Less TCO 20X Less Storage Active-Active SAP Over 10X Distance

4 Manufacturing company Re-Platforming SAP on EMC & VMware Challenge SAP organic growth was outpacing IT resources Needed better storage utilization Aging tape-based backup systems Solution Refresh of EMC DMX to VMAX EMC FAST VP for SAP Virtualized SAP Mission-Critical Applications Added backup and DR strategy with EMC Data Domain Results Provision New Servers In <30 Min ROI Of 289% Over 3 Years Increased DB Performance >60% $1.8m+ In Savings Improved backup reliability Applications SAP Oracle RDBMS database server Microsoft SQL Server employed for Microsoft Exchange Server

5 SAP Big Data Strategy HANA In Memory Technology for next generation compute Reduce storage costs by 20% Improve SAP application performance by 3X+ times

6 Optimized For SAP HANA Solutions SAP HANA Solutions SAP Pipeline Analysis Bank Analyzer Cash Forecasting Charity Transformation Collections Insight CO-PA Accelerator CRM Rapid Deployment ERP Rapid Deployment Customer Segmentation Deposits Management Maximum Performance: Using scale-out servers and tiered, multiprotocol storage Reduce Risk: SAP-qualified solution built on fault-tolerant, industry-leading infrastructure Simplified Management: Common infrastructure across analytics and SAP transactional applications

7 Important Considerations for HANA SAP HANA Still Requires Disks for Persistence External Storage Supports High Availability in what SAP calls a Scale- Out Installation Allows each Node to Become a Worker or a Standby Node Activation of a Standby Node is Triggered by the HANA Nameserver EMC VNX5300 Most Suitable for SAP HANA Flexibility through Multi-Protocols (unifies file and block) Optimum Performance Optimum TCO Highest Reliability EMC provides a strong architectural foundation for upcoming SAP HANA features i.e. Remote Replication for Disaster Tolerance & Backup
