2009: SAP is Building an Internal Cloud
SAP Managed Services:
• Pervasive deployment of VMware across its IT environment
• Usage of more than 8000 VMs with VMware with its primary platform
• Delivering efficient access to training, demo, development landscapes
and mission-critical SAP applications through automated self-service provisioning
“Because the demand for image-based demo solutions of our products
is increasing significantly, automated system provisioning in less than
a day became mission-critical for our business […]. Our
Lean Demo System Landscape Services can now be further
expanded to fulfill additional customer requirements, and we’re looking
forward to leveraging this new technology for larger demo solutions
as a next step.”
- Dr. Martin Przewloka, senior vice president, Demo Solutions, SAP Marketing.

2010: The Private Cloud & VCE
SAP on Vblock:
• SLA-driven, pre-engineered, integrated and tested units
of virtualized infrastructure
• Tested with SAP
“[…] Through our partnership and commitment to reducing costs of
computing and increasing agility, we were able to prove that
customers can quicken application development, lower TCO and
improve overall system up-time for the entire SAP landscape,
including production systems. [..]”
Vishal Sikka, CTO, SAP
“From both a business and IT perspective, the results are significant
and highly compelling, clearly showing how a private cloud
environment could help us better manage our SAP landscape and
contain costs at the same time,”
Tom Peck, SVP and CIO, Levi Strauss & Co.
