IBM is #1 with 2800 SAPS/core
The SAP Application Performance Standard (SAPS) is a hardware-independent unit that describes the performanceof a system configuration in the SAP environment. It is derived from the Sales and Distribution (SD) Benchmark,where 100 SAPS is defined as 2,000 fully business processed order line items per hour .
In technical terms, this throughput is achieved by processing 6,000 dialog steps (screen changes), 2,000 postings per hour in the SD Benchmark, or 2,400 SAP transactions .
In the SD Benchmark, fully business processed means the full business process of an order line item: creating theorder, creating a delivery note for the order, displaying the order, changing the delivery, posting a goods issue,listing orders, and creating an invoice.

Many SAP applications are integrated from a business and dateperspective but not from a workloads point of view
They are managed as separate servers/LPARs
Results in low degree of synergy
POWER processor-based systems and manageability features willallow for workload combination while still keeping applications distinct
Improved system efficiency
Less TCO
Less energy

POWER6 can compute in decimal system
Advantages: Performance and accuracy while easier coding for ISVs like SAPand customersExample: Add 5% to an amount of 0,70:
- 1.05 x 0.70 using the conventional data type binary double exactly results in:0.73499999999999998667732370449812151491641998291015625- rounding to two currency digits results in 0,73- Using a decimal calculation will result in 0,74
To compensate for rounding inaccuracy in binary computing requires much programming efforts andlots of cycles during runtime!
Whitepaper on DFP for SAP NetWeaver available at: http://w3.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/WP101104
The POWER6 processor contains a Decimal Floating-Point Unit whichenables calculations using the human decimal system.

SAP-on-i customers confirm the advantages
Guifeng Yang, IT manager at Wuxi Weifu Automotive, P.R.of China ,The SAP applications run on an IBM System i5 520, using IBM DB2. ... The DB2 database is included aspart of the i5/OS operating system, offering a highly cost-effective, integrated solution for a mid-sizecompany such as Wuxi Weifu.
Mike Neighbors, Vice President of IT, Coca-Cola Bottling Company United, USA:SAP was the natural choice, and there was no question of deploying it on anything other than IBMiSeries it offers probably the lowest total cost of ownership of any enterprise-class system. You alsoachieve cost savings because iSeries is more easily manageable with a small IT team.
Thomas Danner, Director of EDP, INTERSPORT Deutschland eGThe integrated DB2 database within IBM System i provides outstanding performance and flexibility to runSAP NetWeaver BI for our corporation. The virtualization technology of POWER5 combined with theintegrated High Availability option of i5/OS is the best platform to run our SAP NetWeaver landscape withoptimal TCO.
Alan Novick, Director of Information Systems, Pressman Toys Corp. USAPressman runs SAP on IBM iSeries, with DB2 Information Management Software as its database The system was quickly installed and configured, and IBM now delivers reliable support. The ease ofmanagement offered by iSeries and DB2 means that we have no need for a full-time databaseadministrator, which keeps our IT costs low.
Jrgen Dauner, IT Team Leader, Multivac GmbH & Co. KGDB2 for i5/OS requires no dedicated database administrator. Just two people can handle the entireadministration of our SAP applications, including the i5/OS and DB2 landscape for our 1,000 SAP users.

Tested 3rd Party Clustering Solution on System x for SAP
In Windows Server 2008 Enterprise and Windows Server 2008Datacenter, the improvements to failover clusters (formerlyknown as server clusters) are aimed at simplifying clusters,making them more secure, and enhancing cluster stability.Cluster setup and management are easier.
VERITAS Cluster Server, the industry's leading open systemsclustering solution, is ideal for reducing planned and unplanneddowntime, facilitating server consolidation, and effectively managinga wide range of applications in heterogeneous environments.
SteelEye LifeKeeper products help provide high availabilityclustering, data replication and disaster recovery solutions toensure continuous availability of business-critical applications,servers and data.

Tivoli System Automation -Policy-based HA solution
IBMs strategic high availability (HA) solution for platforms running Linux and AIXSystem Automation guarantees high availability for business applications
Can be used for applications of any type (Databases, WebServer, SAP, ) Provides fast detection of HW failures and SW failures (Monitoring) Performs automated recovery, like restart in place of failover (Automation)
Policy-based HA solution with powerful policy elements Allows to describe automation behavior on a high abstraction level
Example: Almost no effort to extend a two node scenario to eight nodes No script programming
Little effort for defining complex HA scenarios
