Citrix and SAP

Citrix extends the value of the SAP ERP application, the SAP NetWeaver Portal component, and SAP's enterprise service-oriented architecture (enterprise SOA) through application delivery solutions that enable more people, in more locations, on any device or network, to enjoy convenient, easy, fast performance of SAP.

In addition, tests at SAP Labs' Palo Alto campus showed that Citrix Application Delivery solutions can reduce users' transaction response times by a staggering 50 to 99 percent – even with SAP's enterprise SOA. And while SAP NetWeaver Portal users enjoyed these reductions in WAN-induced end-user wait times, Citrix NetScaler also reduced SAP NetWeaver Portal server CPU utilization by up to 60%.

Citrix solutions also significantly lower the total cost of ownership of the overall application computing environment. Today, over 10,000 SAP customers, including SAP and Citrix themselves, leverage Citrix application delivery to improve their application environment and increase the time to value of their SAP investment. Together, Citrix and SAP create a flexible IT infrastructure that enables more agile and responsive business processes for customers.
