Danfoss Selects HPE GreenLake for Hybrid Cloud Journey
Danfoss, a Danish multinational engineering group, has chosen HPE GreenLake for S/4 Hana Cloud within the RISE with SAP program for deployment in Danfoss data centers, to accelerate the company’s sustainable cloud journey.
Danfoss has been facing the challenge of maintaining its high standards of data sovereignty, reliability and sustainability while experiencing transformative growth driven by the company’s sustainability goals. To overcome this challenge, Danfoss sought out an IT solution that could support its business processes on its own modular data centers.
To this end, Danfoss selected HPE GreenLake for S/4 Hana Cloud to accelerate their sustainable cloud strategy because it delivers the advantages and experience of cloud, while still allowing them to run their SAP workloads in their own data centers.
The solution selected by Danfoss is a unique offering, co-innovated by HPE and SAP. It enables organizations like Danfoss, who opt for RISE, to enjoy the benefits of a cloud experience while keeping their SAP workloads in a private environment, where their apps and data reside. This proximity offers several advantages, such as enhanced control over data, reduced latency for faster access and processing, and increased security for sensitive information. All of this powered by HPE’s best-in-class cloud infrastructure.
“We have selected RISE with SAP and HPE GreenLake [...] to demonstrate that it is possible to optimize existing data centers operations while reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions. Energy efficiency is not something we need to trade off against other important parameters, but rather it needs to be on an equal footing as a key parameter alongside other standard business priorities. This collaboration allows us to keep our data and applications in our own highly energy efficient data centers and gives us the best of both worlds: the cloud advantages while keeping our data close,” says Sune Baastrup, Chief Information Officer, Danfoss.
