Easily Reduce SAP HANA TCO by Half, Without Compromise

SAP HANA’s data-tiering solution, Native Storage Extension (NSE), supports SAP S/4HANA and allows you to move up to 80% of HANA data into a warm data tier. Housing this data outside of in-memory HANA generally reduces costs by a similar percentage. Traditionally, though, this type of savings also comes with a stiff performance penalty when you bring that warm data back into HANA for processing. But not anymore. Pure Storage has partnered with Intel to integrate its new Optane SSD memory into our FlashArray solutions for SAP. During this session, you will learn about Optane SSD, aka DirectMemoryTM Cache from Pure Storage, and how it dramatically reduces the latency associated with your data’s return trip to HANA. Your users won’t notice a difference compared to leaving their entire dataset in-memory, but your IT budget will love you.
