SAP S/4HANA on GCP Deployment
Deploy SAP S/4HANA on GCP with two deployment models: Centralized
Deployment and Distributed Deployment.
Centralized Deployment
Install SAP S/4HANA and SAP HANA database on the same Compute Engine with a centralized
deployment. The following architecture diagram shows SAP S/4HANA in a centralized
deployment model.
Distributed Deployment
Install SAP S/4HANA and SAP HANA database on different components on different Compute
Engine with a distributed deployment. The following diagram shows SAP S/4HANA in a
distributed deployment model.

Security
Make the following decisions easily by understanding how security access management works
on Google Cloud –
 How to organize resources on Google Cloud.
 Which team members can access and work with resources.
 Exactly which permissions each team member needs to have to conform to the least
privileges for resource access
 Which services and applications need to use which service accounts and what level of
permissions need to be granted in case-to-case basis

High Availability and Disaster Recovery
Enable business continuity in the event of failures with High availability (HA) and disaster
recovery (DR) – A set of techniques, engineering practices and design principles.
Eliminate single points of failure and provide ability to rapidly resume operations after a system
or component outage with minimal business disruption.
Recover and resume operations after an outage due to a failed component with the process of
fault recovery.
Here are some HA and DR tools:
 Linux clustering across zones.
 Live Migration
 Automatic restart
 Service auto-restart
 Backups

Backup and Recovery
Schedule regular backups of your application server and database regularly and easily recover
your critical data in case of a system crash, data corruption or other problems.
Backups
Back up your SAP HANA data on google cloud with a number of options:
 Back up directly to Cloud Storage using the SAP-certified Cloud Storage Backint agent for
SAP HANA (Backint agent)
 Back up to a persistent disk and then upload the backups to Cloud Storage
 Take snapshots of the entire disk that contains the /hana backup directory by using the
Compute Engine snapshot function
