About the Project
By adapting SAP HANA NETWORK is realizing productivity gains – thousands of percent improvements in some cases – rooted in better analysis. Further, by moving to a hosting platform, NETWORK freed up over 30 TB of tier-one storage, which were redeployed for other applications.
NETWORK’s SAP HANA journey did not originally include plans for the cloud. Instead, executives initially believed the company’s standard on-premise approach would continue to be the proper route. However, opinions changed when decision makers evaluated factors such as a cost analysis over the next decade and disaster recovery requirements.
