Power8 = Performance
5500 SAPS / core !!!
� Less cores, less footprint,
� Less by core licencing
� Simpler administration
� Better TCO
Power8 = Resilience and security
� Unsurpassed RAS (reliability, availability, serviceability) characteristics to support mission critical SAP applications (eg. Fault Isolation Register, FFDC&C, built checkers pour detection des erreurs HW …)
� Intended for mission critical 7X24 Enterprise customer operations
� Memory built for resiliency and performance
� ZERO security breeches for PowerVM
Power8 = Flexibility
Virtualization “out of the box” with PowerVM
� Implemented as a Tailored Data Center Integration (TDI) offering (not an appliance)
� On-Demand Capacity
� Can be integrated into and tailored to a Power customer’s environment
� Superior virtualization and management features to afford flexibility and maximum utilization
� Lower virtualization layer overhead on multi-threaded HANA workloads
� Value: fewer cores, fewer footprints, and lower operating costs
• IBM Systems Lab Services has experienced consultants
worldwide ready to help clients deploy solutions for SAP
HANA systems
• Lab Services installations leverage trusted best practices

SAP HANA on IBM Power (Status: 04/2016)Multiple HANA LPARs supported for production on a single server: up to 4 dedicated or 3 dedicated and 1 shared pool
Support for Clustering Support - HANA BW Scale-out (xfs, up to 16 nodes / up to 4800 GB each)
HANA SPS11 Platform Edition availability for POWER (at the same time as with x86)
Non-Production relaxations of the requirements for SAP HANA on IBM Power Servers• POWER8 and POWER7+ servers allowed• No restrictions with regards to the maximum memory per HANA LPAR core• The minimum core count per HANA LPAR is 2.• HANA LPARS can be run in a shared processor pool running with a performance penalty• Standard Network Components are admitted.• SAP HANA LPARS for test, development and quality assurance systems may run in parallel to
other LPARs (for SAP HANA or other purposes) on a single physical Power Server as long as none of the participating LPARs runs a production SAP HANA system.
• Besides xfs also NFS, GPFS and ext3 filesystems are supported.
