Join this webinar to find out how Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides hyperscale cloud infrastructure for running SAP HANA. You will learn about the features of SAP and AWS that support multi-terabyte OLTP and OLAP workloads on HANA, which can be deployed quickly and simply using our QuickStart guides. Additionally, you will discover how to deploy large SAP HANA estates on AWS based on multiple migration options, and how to leverage AWS services to build flexible, redundant, high-availability architectures.

(HSR) in Synchronous mode
• Turn off preload option
• Use same size EBS volume
configuration as primary -
Memory requirements for
secondary instance drastically
reduced
• Use an smaller instance type
with at least 64 GB of RAM or
row store + 20 GB (whichever
is higher)
• During a failover event, resize
secondary instance to X1 and
resume operation

BP needs the agility to be competitive when prices, policy, technology and
customer preferences are changing - and that's what we get with AWS.
Recently, we fully provisioned 220 virtual machines on AWS - from initial
planning to app design layout, provisioning and production - in one week.
