SAP Customer Case Study

• Business Background

‒ European B-2-B office supply retailer

‒ Operates in 30+ countries

‒ 30% growth expected within next 4 years

• Challenges

‒ Long running invoicing batch run times

‒ Cost and effort to administer large number of SAP databases

‒ New B-2-B process couldn„t be supported on current system


Customer’s Requirements

• Goals

‒ Expose “real“ SAP workloads to an Exadata environment

‒ Measure performance increase (throughput & response times)

‒ Show how Oracle technology can help minimize the impact of

hardware and software failures for the business

• Conditions

‒ Use standardized Oracle Exadata configuration

‒ No manual tuning or configuration changes

‒ All tests administered by customer's staff


Conducting Proof of Concept

at Oracle Solution Centre in UK

• Preparation

‒ Installation of the entire IT infrastructure for SAP

‒ Upgrade 6.5 TB data from Oracle Database 10g to Exadata

‒ Generate simulation of online users in a web shop

‒ Generate batch job load for invoicing

• Execution Environment

‒ Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-2 Half-Rack

‒ 5 x Sun Blade 6270 M2 running Solaris10 for Application Tier

‒ All tests administered by customer's staff


Results from Proof of Concept

“Faster performance out-of-the-box”

• Online User Activity

‒ Simulated over 6,000 concurrent users

‒ Response times of ~0.9s with 17% CPU utilization across 4 nodes

‒ Unable to “saturate“ system

• Batch Job Results

‒ Simulated over 900 batch jobs running in parallel

‒ Reduced batch run times by 2/3rds (11:30 to 3:45 hours)

‒ Only 2 Database Server nodes used for batch jobs
