Siemens SAP Cloud - Infrastructure as a Service Siemens Value Proposition April 2010
Agenda 1 Challenges with traditional infrastructure setup 2 Siemens SAP Cloud solution 3 Benefits of Siemens SAP Cloud Page 2
Challenges with traditional infrastructure setup Layers are tightly connected Applications cannot be moved from one server to another server Maintenance of applications / servers is very time consuming Low utilization of the resources One application per server (sizing) Servers are sized for peak performance High TCO Application OS Business requires specific architecture: cluster for production, single for others High heat emission as well as energy and floor space consumption Page 3
Siemens SAP Cloud solution - Value proposition Top quality, cost efficient, scalable and proven concept for SAP hosting where solution is based on: SAP certified FlexFrame virtualization technology developed by Oracle (database), NetApp (storage), Fujitsu Technology Solutions (servers) High available solution as single setup and full disaster recoverability at 2 sites Optimized service from offshore locations lead by local service management Scalable and flexible pricing model Shared for customers Page 4

Siemens SAP Cloud solution - Service components Siemens SAP Cloud consists of the following service catalogue components which all scale up and down: SAP hosting service management local governance SAP operations ( /system) optimized utilizing offshore resources DB operations ( /DB) optimized utilizing offshore resources Managed server capacity ( /user based on average usage assumption) optimized utilizing offshore resources. Managed storage ( /Gb) optimized usage of usage Managed backup ( /Gb) + optional archiving The whole SAP Cloud runs in Siemens Data Centers on Siemens owned platform. Transition to service typically requires migration project. Customer owns their own SAP and DB licenses. Page 7
Benefits of Siemens SAP Cloud The Siemens concept for your benefit 1 2 3 Enhanced quality System at one site is already high available both computing and storage can sustain hardware failures without loosing the service availability (no SPOF) Overall solution at 2 sites offers disaster recoverability Less downtime - All FlexFrame components are built as redundant which enables flexible and reliable way to keep SAP services running e.g. in case of updates or changes Standardized hardware and service with minimum complexity Servers are based on x86 technology standard easy to maintain and low TCO Storage is optimized i.e. it offers best utilization ratio on the market Service is well documented and requires minimum operative tasks for support Excellent capacity scalability and system performance More capacity can be rapidly allocated (fast cloning) Monitored system performance trends are easily transformed to more performance capability by reallocation of services Page 8
Benefits of Siemens SAP Cloud The Siemens concept for your benefit 4 5 Optimized delivery Offshore locations offer the benefit of low pricing and scalable competency Local service management control the quality and add senior value to service Siemens has a long track record and good co-operation with Technology providers Efficient migration project to transition to service Cluster is active immediately after migration, no extra fine-tuning needed Memory capacity is easily reserved as much as needed for the system in scope for migration to enable fast project Snap copies as backup in prior to migration take 1-3 minutes to execute Page 9
