Why run SAP HANA on IBM Power9?

June 11, 2018 by sisllc Leave a Comment

SAP HANA can run on both x86 and IBM Power Systems; however, its performance may vary greatly depending on the platform. Once you sort fact from fiction, it becomes clear that the hardware you choose really makes a significant difference.

  • Businesses with SAP HANA appliances due for a refresh
  • Businesses on commodity architecture moving to SAP HANA

Organizations looking to move to IBM Power Systems from another platform can gain the benefits of better flexibility, reliability, performance, resiliency and high availability.
