UNLIMITED by Capgemini, SAP, and HPEUnlock the true potential of custom applications
Brochure
Are your custom applications prepared for the digital age?
An exponential growth in data processing and storage is crippling application performance. Custom applications are slowing down, impeding time to outcome. They’re getting stickier and less flexible with complex upgrades. But, custom applications are the cornerstone of your business and ensure that you have a competitive edge. So you invest in optimizing the performance, better hardware, or outsourced databases. However, these present only temporary solutions at unsustainable costs.
The net result is:
In order to break through, you need bolder ambitions, backed by high-impact solutions. Imagine custom applications up to 30 times faster and capable of processing over 100 times more data. Now what if it is possible to achieve these targets at lower operating costs and without altering a single line of code?

“Many industries are currently undergoing a digital transformation. This is technology-driven and brings traditional business models into question. In order to maintain the competitive advantages developed in the past, the IT department must quickly implement the changes into day to day business.”– Dr. Michael Schulte CEO,Capgemini Germany

UNLIMITED—Speed up your custom software to real time
UNLIMITED improves the performance of your custom applications by making them faster, more responsive, and ready for Big Data. Our approach is aimed at protecting your investments in custom applications while enabling a leap into the digital age of Social, Mobile, Analytics, and Cloud. UNLIMITED prepares your custom applications to process mountains of data in real-time. It enhances data quality, reduces cost and complexity. The resultant improvements in speed and flexibility assure better user productivity while substantially reducing effort. What’s more, the improvements are long-term, insulating your application landscape from incessant renovation for years.
To achieve this, we usually avoid changing a single line of code; instead, we use the SAP HANA® platform running on HPE which presents the potential to improve application speed by up to 30 times. Measurable advantages include:
1. Processing large quantities of data (Big Data) in real time
2. Ability to continuously, effortlessly improve data quality
3. Reduction in operating costs
4. Lower complexity with a greater degree of flexibility
5. Faster access to data and significantly better usability, which lead directly to increased satisfaction and productivity for the end-users
6. A future-proof application landscape

“While we were searching for a solution which dealt with all of the problems of custom developments in a single stroke, we asked colleagues from a wide variety of expertise for ideas. The result of this interdisciplinary work is UNLIMITED.”– Detlev Sandel Director of Innovation Management, Capgemini Germany

Input Procedure What you get
Improved performance in two steps
Our agile, modular approach minimizes risks and costs, since we test applications through a purpose built process and in advance. The test identifies improvement potential of your applications and the likely costs involved in realizing it. Your time and effort commitments are minimal; capped to the point of sharing an anonymized copy of the database.
In two to four weeks, you receive a detailed report containing:
• Technical feasibility
• Results of the performance test
• A compatibility analysis
• Improvement potential assessment
• Recommendations for the next steps
The next step is to adapt the database for SAP HANA. We review required adjustments, implement them, and prepare the HANA system for operational readiness. In most cases, we continue to use the test database. You retain the choice to run the operation on your own or move to an as-a-service model with Capgemini.

Why SAP HANA for application performance improvement
SAP HANA is a lightning fast in-memory platform capable of processing large quantities of structured and unstructured data in real time. Developed for business critical applications demanding high-availability, it reads from a system’s central memory, from where access to data is up to 200,000 times faster, compared to a hard disk. A SAP HANA Database is up to 95 percent smaller than a traditional, relational database with the same content, thanks to column-based, redundancy-free data storage and compression techniques. What you get is a significantly compact database and a simplified data model.

In addition, SAP HANA reduces administration requirements by eliminating data indexing. It enables flexible data modeling as models can be defined and modified during operation. With faster access times, it eliminates batch processing and enhances the granularity of data analyses, facilitating the analysis of geographical data, texts, and videos in an instant.
Along with database enhancement, we can also optimize your applications for SAP HANA or implement entirely new functionalities. That’s greater speed and flexibility with very little implementation effort, costs, or risks.
Why HPE for SAP HANA
Digital transformation is critical for success in the idea economy. You can count on HPE solutions for SAP HANA to bring you simplified, innovative solutions based on right-fit infrastructure, software, and services, creating an integrated digital core that:
• Offers deployment choices—on-premises, TDI, and Cloud—so you can have SAP HANA the way you want it
