SAP Platform & S/4 HANA - Support for InnovationBernhard Luecke
Platform Support enabling IT to increase speed of innovation (= time to value) is a challenge - a challenge that can be mastered and has to be mastered.
Key Elements are:
* Control Center Concept including Innovation Control Center, Operations Control Center and Mission Control Center
* Support w/o Incidents - as an incident means a risk to progress as planned
* Embedded Support for Innovation, based on Business Value
For the SAP Platform in general, and S/4 HANA specifically, Standard Support, more Enterprise Support and even more Premium Engagement (SAP Active Embedded, SAP MaxAttention) provide services that contribute to the customer innovation from ideation & design, over roadmap and detailed planning, execution and GoLive until optimization and value realization of the business solution.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

17. Highlights
T-Systems ---Market leader
T-Systems positioned as Leader for the second time in a row.
Reasons for being Leader
T-Systems' improved international footprint and portfolio
strategy, driven by advanced industrialized services.
Thanks to its continuous pushing of utility and cloud
services, T-Systems has increased its visibility as one of the
relatively few successful converged telecom and IT
providers.
TSI clients praised the availability of its data center service,
its focus on using standardized methodologies, and its
flexibility and efficiency in relationship and escalation
management.
Points of differentiation
HP's approach to cloud services has been conservative to
date with an immediate focus on enterprise clients' private
cloud environments that may lead to managed services or
technology deals.
Clients reported that HP could improve its agility in terms of
implementation and problem solving, its focus on improving
service delivery through innovation, and its performance in
transition management.
… IBM does not appear to be actively promoting
industrialized utility services to clients.

SAPS (SAP Application Performance Standard) is a hardware-independent unit of
measurement that describes the performance of a system configuration in the SAP
environment. It is derived from the Sales and Distribution (SD) benchmark, where 100 SAPS is
defined as 2,000 fully business processed order line items per hour.
This throughput is achieved by processing 6,000 dialog steps (screen changes), 2,000
postings per hour in the SD Benchmark, or 2,400 SAP transactions.
•T-Systems uses concept of Slices where 1 Slice ~ 80 SAPS
• 1 Slice also equals 2137 Transactions per minute , 512 MB RAM..

Storage: I/O Performance.
Is „Network AttachedStorage“ a potential bottleneck?
Involved Components:
Gigabit Network 13,000 IOPS
Server 13,000 IOPS (capped by Gigabit Network)
NetApp Filer cluster60,000 IOPS
Disc Subsystem 60 IOPS per Disc
Result
Each Servercan create a load of 13,000IOPSagainst the storage box (in case enoughdiscs are receivingthis
I/Oload).
This equals a load of about 26,000up to 32,000SAPS@46Cinan active SAP System.
