Adaptive Computing

Managing Virtualized SAP System Landscapes

Adaptive Computing (AC) offers an approach for the dynamic assignment of hardware resources. In an Adaptive Computing Infrastructure, you can, for example, very quickly move a system for which a server is no longer providing the required performance to a more powerful server. Dialog Instances can be flexibly started on free servers to absorb spikes in workload. Another situation in the computer center could be development and training systems that are stopped at night to support the background operation of productive systems with their free servers. These entire processes can be performed without needing to make any configuration changes.

Getting Started

 

Our mission is to ensure that SAP solutions can run on an adaptive computing infrastructure using SAP NetWeaver. This is done by virtualizing the hardware resources and their dynamic assignment to serve specific application services, reduce complexity and optimize operational concepts to run at peak cost efficiency.
