The TDI model increases server and network vendor flexibility while reducing hardware and operational costs. The SAP HANA TDI on SC Series storage solution provides the following benefits:
- Integrates SAP HANA into an existing data center.
- Uses shared enterprise storage to rely on already-available, multisite concepts to benefit from established automation and operations processes.
- Enables customers to transition easily from an appliance-based model to the SC Series-based TDI architecture, while relying on Dell EMC Professional Services to minimize risk.
- Achieves global data reduction with a highly integrated data deduplication and compression architecture, increasing the return on investment in the SC Series all-flash and hybrid arrays.
- Enables faster read operations with faster database restarts, host auto-failovers, log backups, database recoveries, and table loads.
- Enables efficient storage protection and recovery with the Dell EMC Data Domain system and Dell EMC Data Domain Boost (DD Boost) software. Greater throughput, a reduced storage footprint, and reduced network bandwidth requirements are achievable because only unique data is sent to the Data Domain system.
