Why VMware

and SAP

Together with SAP, we make cloud run better by simplifying

infrastructure for yourSAP landscape.

Allow existing SAP customers to easily leverage Hybrid Cloud and Hyper-Converged Architecture,

without transformation in technology, by just using our

vSphere platform

The HANA Mandate

Mandate: All Customers to HANA by 2025

Large scale SAP Modernization

Infrastructure Redesign

Cloud vs On Premise vs Hybrid

HANA Migration



SAP Pain Points

Cloud migration might require HANA refactoring

Stay on Heritage SAP or move to Next Gen

Full overhaul of operational procedures

Cloud migrations: High Effort and High Cost

You’re gonna need a bigger boat!!!

SAP HANA Scale-Up VMs up to 256 vCPUs and 6 TB RAM

SAP HANA Scale-Out up to 32 TB*

Only Hypervisor with SAP HANA Workload Based Sizing support

6 of 9 SAP HANA HCI Solutions are based on VMware products.

Only solution with consistent operations from edge to core to cloud

Operational Simplicity with Integrated Support

Full access to all system resources (up tp 6 TB RAM and all built-in CPUs)

SAP HANA on VMwareWhat‘s New?

Broadest SAP HANA x86 Hardware and Vendor Support

Greatest Scalability of any Hypervisor for SAP HANA

Hyperconverged (HCI) Appliances for SAP HANA



Appliance or TDI approach

Storage must meet HANA KPIs

Appliance or TDI approach

Half-Socket support

Compute, storage and network resources must not get overcommitted

TDI approach required

Network TDI KPIs must be met

VM must be >= 4 sockets

SAP HANA on VMware vSphereDeployment Options

Single-VM Multi-VM Scale-out

• All SAP HANA Scale-Up VMs can get configured as half socket VMs, maximal 2 half socket VMs per NUMA node!• Single host is technically possible, but not recommended!

SAP HANA High Level Validation Strategy - Hypervisor

Single Hypervisor version will get validated on 4 socket first Appliance and TDI

• 8 Socket (if applicable)

Single Hypervisor version will get validated on two chipsets

Multiple Hypervisor versions will be supported on a single chipset

Typical validation timelines:• Scale Up: 2– 3 months

• Multi VM: 2 – 3 months

• Scale out: 5 months (projected) utilize partner model



TDI Program Phase 5 for VMware virtualized SAP HANA Systems:

Reduce hardware and operational costs by reusing existing hardware components and operation processes

Mitigate risks and optimize time-to-value by enabling existing IT management processes for SAP HANA implementations

Have more flexibility in hardware vendor selection by leveraging the existing ecosystem

Nearly all VMware virtualized SAP HANA Configurations are TDI installations.

Same server BOM as the certified appliance or supported servers, but mostly with external storage.

As of today, only hypervisor with Workload Based Sizing support.

No T-Shirt sized SAP HANA systems!

HANA



What does SAP HANA phase 5 mean for virtualized SAP HANA systems?

Virtual host systems and guest memory and processors are fine-tuned for the specific customer workload. This custom sizing's will optimize the system utilization and CAPEX.

TDI phase 5 for existing VMware TDI implementations?

Customers with Broadwell bases systems and later can analyze their current workload requirements with the help of the latest SAP HANA sizing or system monitoring tools to determine CPU usage and to increase for instance the configured RAM, which was previously limited by the fixed SAP HANA CPU core to RAM ratios!

Relevancy for VMware virtualized SAP HANA Systems

Current and Planned SAP HANA on VMware vSphere Support Status

*Scale-Out Non-Prod. support for vSphere 6.0 on Haswell and Broadwell as of note 2315348.

Note: Scale-Out up to 2 TB with 16 nodes, in total 32 TB GA more RAM upon SAP sizing.

SAP HANA Workload Based sizing requires vSphere 6.7u2!

Remarks to SAP HANA support:

1Maximal SAP HANA VM RAM is 6 TB. vRAM is limited by the maximal supported RAM of a physical SAP HANA 4-socket server configuration as specified by SAP (Broadwell 4 TB, SKL 6 TB). Refer to the Certified SAP HANA Hardware Directory for more details. 8-socket servers are supported with maximal 4-socket large VMs.

2If Workload Based Sizing – SAP Note 2779240 gets leveraged, then up to 6 TB memory VM configurations are also possible with Broadwell systems.
