62

SAP HANA as an in-Memory database needs to read all data

into RAM on a restart of the system• Speed: HANA Databases tend to be large – so this simply takes

time.

• Risk: From an operating perspective, even if the HANA database is

clustered, there is a higher risk to the DC as only one system is

active, the other one is restarting

• What if: If the HANA Database can be made persistent in memory,

only a consistency check is required on reboot but the need and time

taken to load multiple Terrabytes of data from disk in memory is no

longer an issue.

PerformanceSAP HANA as an in-Memory Database

63

Reboot and restart SAP

HANA systems faster

Source: Blog by Andreas Schuster, Product Manager – SAP HANA Platform

Restart time:

• Large Databases gain the most

advantage at restart time

System Performance:

• Read times are similar to DRAM, write times

are ‘in the same performance envelope’

• HANA writes changes in batches

Size:

• Processors with an L suffix (eg 8280L): 4.5 TB

maximum per processor

• Processors with an M suffix (eg 8280M): 2 TB

maximum per processor

• All other processors: 1 TB per processor

Workload Memory Protection

Workload Memory Protection is a

new feature that replaces Page Cache

Management.

• Based on open source ‘cgroup’

• Provides a highly scalable solution

• Protects the memory where SAP

applications store data

• Protects against any kind

of memory pressure

• Offers lots of possibilities

for the future.

Containers are a key topic for

SAP. SAP is working on

containerizing solutions

• SAP DataHub

• Extensions of S/4 HANA

• SAP HANA (Public Cloud Service)

SAP is Starting to Deliver Solutions

Through Containers

76

SUSE provides various solutions

already today for clients to run

Container based workloads

• SUSE CaaS Platform is a product that

provides a platform based on

Kubernetes and Docker to run a

container at Enterprise Scale

• SLES for SAP Applications can also

host containers by installing the

respective extensions to the system –

to get started

Containers themselves also

require an OS – SUSE can help

here, too!

SUSE CaaS Platform architecture

SUSE and SAP work closely in the area of

containers to provide a holistic solution

Course Summary

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES)

for SAP Applications is the leading

Linux platform for SAP HANA, SAP

NetWeaver, and SAP S/4HANA

solutions. The SUSE and SAP alliance

spans two decades of collaboration

and innovation. SUSE Linux

Enterprise Server was the first OS for

SAP HANA. If you’re running SAP,

chances are that you’re running SLES

as well. You need to know what you’re

doing.

Whether you are an SAP customer or

partner, knowing how the underlying

operating system works will make you

better at your job. Build up your

knowledge of this foundational

component for most SAP

implementations and put yourself on

the path to the SUSE certifications

SUSE Certified Administrator (SCA) and

SUSE Certified Engineer (SCE).
