Today, SAP protection includes:
- Continually maximizing SAP performance and availability
- Improving the visibility and control of SAP data protection
- Swiftly and adeptly responding to changing business SLAs
- Empowering database administrators and app owners to use their own native tools for backup and recovery
Meeting business challenges for customers requires a consolidated approach to data protection using a protection storage architecture. Dell Data Domain systems enable you to redefine SAP backup, archive, and availability with deduplication and consolidated data protection. Data Domain systems work seamlessly with a range of backup, archive, and enterprise applications, enabling you to:
- Consolidate backup and archive workloads, eliminating “one-off” protection architectures
- Improve visibility and control of data protection, and enable application owners and DBAs to back up and restore SAP environments
- Reduce your protection footprint by employing deduplication and data reduction across your SAP landscape
- Simplify system management
- Protect multiple database copies efficiently and reliably

- Complement SAP HANA’s protection capabilities
When you pair Data Domain with Data Protection Suite for Applications, you can:
- Take advantage of direct data paths to Data Domain that offer faster backup and recovery compared to traditional approaches
