Ask Approyo: What are the key benefits for moving to SAP S/4HANA now?

SAP S/4HANA is designed to drive instant value across lines of business and industries with the ultimate sophistication: simplicity. SAP S/4HANA is only built on SAP HANA because, as of today, only the SAP HANA platform can deliver such level of massive simplifications and innovations.

From a business value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to reinvent business models and drive new revenues and profits. First, enterprises can now easily connect to people, devices, and business networks to deliver new value to their customers on any channel – the Internet of Things and Big Data become accessible to any business. Second, enterprises can dramatically simplify their processes, drive them in real time and change them as needed to gain new efficiencies – no more batch processing is required. And finally, business users can now get any insight on any data from anywhere in real-time: planning, execution, prediction, and simulation – decisions may be made on the fly with a high level of granularity for faster business impact.

From an IT value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to simplify the landscape and help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) with SAP HANA as the great simplifier. First, enterprises can now reduce their data footprint and work with larger data sets in
one system (for example, ERP, CRM, SRM, SCM, PLM co-deployed) to save hardware costs, operational costs, and time. Second, innovation is also made simple with an open platform (SAP HANA Cloud Platform) to drive advanced applications – for example, predicting, recommending, and simulating – while protecting existing investments. Third, business users can leverage a simple
and role-based user experience based on modern design principles which minimizes training efforts while increases productivity. We also support customers with simple configuration: setting up the system and during its use. And finally, enterprises get choice of deployment: cloud, on premise, and even hybrid to drive quick time-to-value.

Ask Approyo - Can I run transactions and analytics on the same system without adding more DRAM and CPU resources?

SAP HANA Platform vs. Disk-Based Database with In-Memory Cache

SAP HANA
YES - Because SAP HANA requires only one copy of data.

SAP HANA Platform is designed to take advantage of the latest hardware innovations. It utilizes SIMD instructions, advanced parallelization with multi-core processors and data compression to maximize CPU and RAM utilization. This allows for processing mixed workloads on the same system and on the same copy of data with the most efficient utilization of system resources.

​​

Disk-Based Database with In-Memory Cache
NO -Because data is copied and stored multiple times for transactions and analytics.

To process transactional and analytical workloads on the same system, disk-based databases need to use specialized in-memory caches. To leverage this new technology layer the database not only has to create multiple data copies and keep them synchronized, but in addition must also route incoming requests to the appropriate data copies. This increases the amount of CPU and memory required and delays system response.
