running HANA on POWER?
Select one:
There is no need to transfer data by running
ERP on HANA with POWER systems with the
scale-out capabilities of the H922 and H924
systems
HANA is an in-memory database and 
benefits from the high bandwidth

between memory and CPU that POWER
has and allows both transactional and
reporting from the same database
As HANA is an in-memory database, running

HANA on a bare-metal POWER system will

With the better RAM to core ratio for POWER
systems, there will be less CPU cores
required and, therefore, reduce the
likelihood of a system failure
POWER systems can use Live Partition

Mobility (LPM) to failover to another server
in the event of a system failure
POWER systems are equipped with Cores on

Demand (COD) and PowerVM, which allows
the server to deallocate defective CPU cores
and allocate spare CPU cores to take over,
and/or dynamically move the HANA
instance to a new partition (LPAR) to
prevent downtime in server component
failures
POWER Systems have a track record of 
99.999% uptime with built-in design to

prevent memory failures, dynamic
component de-allocation and on the fly Back Next
repair and fault isolation

Customers can only run a single HANA
production instance on a x86 server,
whereas on POWER, multiple HANA
production instances can co-exist on the
same server but in different virtualized
partitions (LPAR)
With POWER, the HANA database and S/4

application can both run on the same server,
but in different virtualized partitions (LPAR)
It is not possible to propose to a customer a

POWER server with greater than 24TB RAM
since the largest certified S/4 support is at
24TB (for scale-up)
With PowerVM, it is possible to run an S/4 

production instance on a 8TB partition, a
BW/4 production instance in a 10TB
partition, and a C/4 production instance

in a 4TB partition, with complete
isolation of resources between partitions

0.00 points out
appliance offering?
of 1.00
Select one:
Customers on SAP certified servers can
have the flexibility of using their choice of
SAP certified enterprise storage
TDI allows for a larger scale-out

implementations that can accommodate for
a larger HANA database
Customers do not have to buy new 
servers and can repurpose any servers

they have in their data centre, thereby
saving CAPEX
As POWER is the only certified server for

TDI, customers will benefit from the
flexibility, ease of management and lower
TCO
Question 17 SAP refers to S/4 as to "Simplify" the ERP

Incorrect application. What does one aspect of "Simplify"
refer to? Back Next
0.00 points out

each transaction
Using the product "out of the box", without

needing to do any development
modifications for the business processes
Question 18 What is the advantage of using POWER servers

Correct over Intel x86 servers in a Tailored Datacentre
Integration (TDI) implementation? Back Next
1.00 points out
of 1.00
Select one:
POWER systems are the only certified
servers available for TDI implementations
With TDI phase 5, workload-base sizing 

is now available, and with POWER's
advantage of memory (RAM) to core
ratio, customers can run the same
workload on fewer POWER cores
It is only with POWER systems that

customers can reuse their existing server
infrastructure. Customers using Intel x86
servers must purchase new SAP certified
servers for their TDI implementation
Only customers on POWER systems have a

choice of SAP certified enterprise storage
providers
Question 19 A customer is looking at migrating from ERP to

Correct S/4HANA at this time. Why would it be a good
time to do this migration on POWER? Back Next
1.00 points out
of 1.00
Select one:
POWER9 systems servers are currently
certified for SAP HANA applications are the
best in-class servers. These servers are the
only ones that support virtualization.
Customers will be able to run S/4 instances
with up to 64TB of memory
SAP has announced that from 2025,

S/4HANA and AnyDB will no longer be
supported on Intel x86 platforms. It is best
that the customers start the S/4HANA
project on POWER to avoid a hardware
migration later
S/4HANA and POWER has been certified 

since 2015 with over 1,300 HANA
customers. SAP and IBM have been
working closely to optimized
virtualization, performance, resiliency
and TCO for the best SAP infrastructure
available
POWER systems for HANA has been

available since 2011, and over 1,300
customers have chosen to run their SAP
HANA infrastructure on POWER Back Next
Question 20 Your customer is new to SAP applications and

Correct would like to start a new project to implement
S/4 in their business. The customer has no Back Next
1.00 points out
POWER systems deployed within the company
of 1.00
How will you approach this opportunity?
Select one:
Explain to the customer how HANA is an in-
memory database and that the key to good
performance is a server with larger RAM
capacity. The migration from x86 servers to
POWER can be achieved with the assistance
of IBM Services
With the family of POWER servers, the

customer can start with the smaller 2-
socket systems and have the flexibility of
scaling-out in a multi-node configuration or
scale-up into the enterprise servers as the
business grows and never be locked-in
Given that the customer is only familiar with

x86 servers, this is a Migration from x86
opportunity. You would brief the customer
on the flexibility of the PowerVM

virtualization capabilities of POWER
systems and how that it would take less
management and keeping the TCO of the Back Next
S/4 infrastructure low. With the larger RAM
capacity, the POWER server can also grow
with the business
This is clearly a Greenfield 
implementation and your customer is not

aware of the benefits of POWER. You
would explain the flexibility of PowerVM
and how it can reduce server sprawl by
running the entire SAP landscape within
one server. This will also lower TCO in
the long run
Question 21 Which two Operating System vendors are

Correct certified for SAP HANA?
Back Next
1.00 points out
Select one:
of 1.00
Oracle Linux and SUSE Linux
