SAP S/4HANA on AWS

What is Amazon Web Services?

A secure cloud services platform,

comprised of more than 70 services, that

enables customers to run virtually any

application: from enterprise applications

like SAP to social games and mobile apps

AWS Services for SAP S/4HANA

On-demand resizable compute capacity in

the cloud

40+ different VM configurations, 20+ are

benchmarked and certified for SAP

solutions

Windows, SUSE Linux, and Red Hat Linux

operating systems

Secure, durable and highly-scalable,

object/file storage in the cloud

Low cost backup storage for your SAP

systems

Only pay for what you need, with no

minimum commitments or up-front fees

A logically isolated section of the AWS

cloud where you can launch AWS

resources in a virtual network that you

define.

VPN connection provides secure

connectivity between your VPC and on-

premises systems and users

Persistent block level storage volumes for

use with Amazon EC2 instances

EBS volumes offer the consistent and low-

latency performance needed to run

workloads like SAP S/4HANA

Key Benefits for SAP S/4HANA

Cost Savings

Benefit from AWS’s economies of

scale and operational efficiencies which

translate into lower cost for customers

Multiple purchasing options allow you

to optimize your cost

Trade capital expense for variable

expense. Pay for infrastructure as you

consume it

“Up to 71% savings on the sum of all

TCO elements, AWS has an impact on”

Long-term Commitment

Provision compute, storage and

network infrastructure for SAP S/4HANA

in hours vs. weeks or months with

traditional infrastructure

Provision temporary infrastructure for

etc.

Estimating SAP S/4HANA initial and

future memory requirements accurately

can be challenging

Infrastructure can be sized based on

actual requirements and then increased as

requirements increase

Infrastructure is oversized sized leading to

higher cost for underutilized infrastructure

The Problem

AWS Infrastructure

Traditional Infrastructure

Availability

Amazon EC2 Auto Recovery can

automatically recover an impaired

instance due to an underlying hardware

failure

Synchronously replicate to a second

Availability Zone to achieve a higher

level of availability than would be possible

in a single data center

Use S3 Cross-Region Replication to

replicate backups to another AWS region
