Are you ready to streamline your SAP processes? The pace of change in business and IT is relentless. To stay on top, enterprise leaders must focus on agility. Yet, customizing and upgrading SAP environments can be time consuming and costly. Now SAP teams can innovate faster and more cost effectively while also maximizing availability by using SAP Landscape Virtualization Manager with NetApp Private Storage for AWS & NetApp Cloud ONTAP. SAP and NetApp will show how to dramatically accelerate SAP development cycles by instantly activating the compute and storage resources needed for dev, test, training and conference room pilots. We’ll also show how this automated solution can reduce compute and storage costs by up to 50% and provide disaster recovery virtually for free. The solution demonstration will include how to clone multiple copies of an SAP system in 5 minutes using no extra storage. Along the way we’ll share cloud-readiness advice gained in jointly developing this solution. The NetApp team will then review the NetApp-AWS solutions at the foundation of this SAP infrastructure and share new capabilities in our expanding joint portfolio that can help you: • Gain cloud compute benefits for workloads that demand maximum performance, scale, availability, or control: NetApp Private Storage for AWS – uses Amazon EC2 • Enhance AWS cloud storage with the power of enterprise data management — with a software-only solution: NetApp Cloud ONTAP for AWS – uses Amazon EC2 & Amazon EBS • Solve backup and archive headaches with cloud-integrated storage: NetApp SteelStore – uses Amazon S3 & Amazon Glacier. • Store data across Amazon regions & decades with scalable, durable object storage across your premises and AWS: NetApp StorageGRID Webscale – uses Amazon S3

31. Be prepared—be cloud ready
Analyze your on-premises systems

32. Set the foundation
 If not yet done – switch to NetApp as basis for your SAP infrastructure
 Use NFS (or iSCSI) to embrace the flexibility of the data fabric
 Are your SAP systems prepared to move into the cloud?
 Do they leverage the adaptive design principle?
 Do you use SAP LVM?
 Are you using NetApp Snapshot technology for backups?
 At least you should be able to separate “sap” volumes from your OS!
 Do you have a complete picture of your network infrastructure?
 How do the users access the SAP systems?
 What additional devices are connected?
 What is your network topology?
Be cloud ready
© 2015 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved.32

33. Know your landscape
 What is your data change rate?
 If you use snapshots – what is the change rate of SAPdata volumes?
 What is the change rate for SAPlog volumes (i.e., redo logs/archive logs depending on your database)
 What is your system utilization?
 In order to define the required compute, analyze your average/peak system load
 What are your SLAs?
 RPO/RTO
 What is your DR performance requirement?
 Backup requirements for NON-production systems
What are your I/O, capacity, and bandwidth requirements?
