Intel’s architecture is ideally suited to high performance, mission-critical workloads. And SAP HANA is specifically engineered to take particular advantage of the reliability, availability, and serviceability features of the Intel® Xeon® Processor E7 family.

Designed to work perfectly together, SAP HANA and the Intel processor family help you radically simplify and accelerate transactional and analytical processes. So you can streamline your infrastructure, reducing your total cost of ownership, and get increased data-processing performance and capacity from less hardware. And with in-memory processing, you get real-time insights into your data, whatever its size and complexity, while maintaining business continuity.

With SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, everything is available in the cloud – giving you simpler deployments across private, public and hybrid clouds.

It works better because it was built to.

How can you use your data more strategically and run an insight-driven business?

It’s simple. With the SAP S/4HANA suite, you can reimagine your business processes to focus on the most essential tasks. The software is designed to enable you to analyze both structured and unstructured data. So, you can gain insight from multiple sources, then predict and simulate to stay ahead of the competition. It can be integrated with non-SAP solutions, and you can use it as you want – on premise, in the cloud, or a combination of both.

OPTIMIZE YOUR IT

How much better could your business run if your IT were fully optimized? SAP HANA and the Intel® Xeon® Processor E7 family have been purpose-built to help businesses of all sizes work faster, more securely, and with greater flexibility.

With SAP HANA, you have the ability to run data warehouses, business software suites, and analytics in the cloud. So you get fast data access with increased memory capacity. And with Intel® Run Sure technology, you also get better security and reliability. Combined with in-memory processing, this means you can limit downtime and analyze data at its source. So you can make and act on decisions far quicker.

All of which means you can lower costs across your whole enterprise and raise the efficiency of your business processes. And it’s scalable, too – ensuring it continues to work for you as your business grows.
