Red Hat and SAP Bring SAP Applications to Virtual Servers

Finally, the revolution in SAP bussines! :)

The real news here is that by certifying NetWeaver on RHEL 5’s virtual machines, RHEL virtualization becomes much less of a neat technology trick and much more of a way for SAP customers to really get value from server virtualization.

One of the challenges facing users of mainstream enterprise applications, such as those from SAP, is finding ways to use high performance, low cost, industry standard systems rather than having to rely on single-vendor, low volume, high price systems. Making best use of these industry standard systems usually requires adoption of some form of virtual processing software [the clustering software mentioned in the release], virtual storage software [the global file system software mentioned in the release] and management software for these virtualized environments,” said Kusnetzky.
