6 SAP suite of applications can benefit greatly from cloud, especially private cloud. Top private workloads Data mining, text mining, or other analytics Security Data warehouses or data marts Business continuity and disaster recovery Test environment infrastructure Long-term data archiving/preservation Transactional databases Industry-specific applications ERP applications Audio/video/Web conferencing Service help desk Infrastructure for training and demonstration WAN capacity, VOIP Infrastructure Desktop Test environment infrastructure Storage Data center network capacity Server Top public workloads In the private cloud, database- and application-oriented workloads are the most appropriate. In the public clouds, infrastructure workloads emerge as most appropriate. Source: IBM Market Insights, Cloud Computing Research, July n=1,090 SAP Application Suite Workloads

17 Challenges for SAP customers inside and outside of the Cloud Long install time 3-5+ full days, sometimes even weeks if physical systems need to ordered Re-provisioning/move requires SAP System-Copy 2-3+ full days for this operation Lots of non production sandboxes Dev system, test system, demo system, training system System are not de-provisioned, because of time-to-get-it-back SAP landscape is layered/add on modules CRM,, etc adds complexity to install/move Moving between Cloud or from On Premise System copy, compress, 125 GB+, FTP You can send Amazon a disk The opportunity lies in building solutions that address and solves these issues.

Composition of Functions / Service Workflows to Use Cases T

19 SAP System Copy - a basic concept of cloud computing for SAP Common issue: Many SAP Systems interact with other systems - and so do their copies Two concepts are available to prevent such interaction: 1. Isolating SAP Clones on the network area (e.g. using VLAN) 2. SAP Post processing after cloning New Storage functions significantly improve the cloning process: Clones can be created rapidly and without impact on the source system based on snapshots Nearly no additional storage space required initially after clone is created Existing server hardware can be used -> most probably no additional HW investment required -> turnarounds for creating a clone are very short T

20 SAP Cloning, concept 1: Network based separation of SAP systems Basic attributes Isolated network area ( VLAN or subnet topology) Contains all required partitions Copy of SAP system Full system image SAP image SAP DB loaded into new SAP installation Provides an exact copy (clone) of source SAP system works nearly the same way for nearly any SAP module Use cases Re-create a problem in the production system Fast creation of education systems Rapid provisioning of new, empty SAP systems Provisioning of complete system landscapes Test of SAP Upgrades Server LPAR 1 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW1 LPAR 2 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW1 LPAR 3 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW1 Network 1 Network 2 Network 3 T

21 SAP cloning concept 2 SAP Post-Processing after cloning: Can be applied after cloning concept 1. Work Steps (sample): manipulation of data inside the database and file system, e.g. Remove printers, remove RFC connections Change SAP System ID Different changes for each SAP module necessary ABAP and Java adaptations might be required Possibility to change data inside the application Use cases Network separation not possible or not wanted Target systems need to communicate with each other or with source systems Make SAP data anonymous, e.g. HR systems Reduce Database size Server LPAR 1 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW1 LPAR 2 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW2 LPAR 3 SAP Netweaver 7.1 SID: NW3 T
