The SAP HANA TDI deployment model gives you additional flexibility to integrate SAP HANA into your data center. You can:
- Choose from a broad portfolio of SAP HANA-certified servers and CPU models to combine with SAP-certified network and storage components.
- Seamlessly integrate SAP HANA into existing data center operations such as disaster recovery, data protection, monitoring, and management, reducing the cost, time-to-value, and risk of an overall SAP HANA adoption.
- Share the storage and network components for different workloads to optimize the total cost of ownership (TCO).
