This document discusses Cisco and NetApp solutions for implementing SAP HANA, including: 1) The FlexPod approach which provides a simplified architecture for deploying SAP HANA appliances on Cisco UCS and NetApp storage up to 48TB. 2) Implementing SAP HANA using Tailored Data Center Integration (TDI) on FlexPod, which provides more flexibility compared to appliance-based deployments. 3) Two use cases for SAP HANA TDI involving running multiple SAP HANA production systems on a single Cisco UCS, and reusing an existing data center network rather than network components included in the solution.

What’s Wrong with Traditional Approaches?
• Too many nodes and
switches
• Complicated management
• Higher risk of failure in HA
situation
• Latency introduced by daisy
chaining or additional network
layers
• Another networking layer
required to scale beyond
6 TB (4x1.5TB)
• Complex standby node
configuration

10. 10© 2015 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential
Cisco NetApp FlexPod Approach
• Simple scaling up to 32 nodes = 48TB
• Simple standby node configuration
• Simple network design
• No additional networking layer nessesary
