Important Note: On January 1, 2009, the SAP SD Benchmark was updated. Alongside the upgrade to SAP Business Suite 7 software and the SAP enhancement package 4 for SAP ERP, a number of additional, necessary updates were implemented. These are aimed at bringing the SD benchmark in line with the "sell from stock" scenario as it is productively used by SAP customers. The updates are transparent; that is, the steps of the benchmark scenario remain unchanged. Please be aware that these changes make the SD benchmark more resource-intensive, which has a direct impact on the benchmark results.

Server segmentation: The "Server Segmentation" column indicates whether partitioning, virtualization, or any other such kind of technology was used on the physical server during the benchmark run.
