IDC has found that leveraging data analytics in business decisions is becoming a top priority for an increasing number of companies. This in turn is placing new demands on IT organisations. The need is twofold: to manage new streams of unstructured data from sources such as social media and to speed response times to deliver real-time analytics.

To meet these objectives, many organisations are turning to Cisco UCS® powered by Intel® Xeon® processors to support SAP HANA and other mission-critical SAP applications. Cisco UCS® offers SAP-specific advantages such as delivering an architecture customised for running SAP HANA as well as benefits based on the integrated nature of UCS, strong scalability, and centralised system management and administration.
