Using SAP HANA in TDI deployments with Dell PowerStore enterprise storage systems has many benefits for customers, including reduced hardware and operational costs, lower risks, and greater hardware vendor flexibility.
Customers can transition easily to this new architecture while relying on Dell Technologies Professional Services to minimize risk.
SAP certifies PowerStore storage systems for both the FC SAN and NAS/NFS protocols, giving customers the choice of block or file for SAP HANA. You can use these storage systems for SAP HANA production and nonproduction installations and for single-node and scale-out systems.
