SAP-Solution: cluster

Many application managers in the SAP environment continue to swear by bare metal as the ultimate for SAP environments. And they would be right if hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI) were only about virtualization. But it is about much more.

For the real-time analysis of data, there are several developing technologies on the market as well as established solutions.
