SAP Standard Application Benchmarks
SAP Standard Application Benchmarks help customers and partners find the appropriate hardware configuration for their IT solutions. Working in concert, SAP and our hardware partners developed the SAP Standard Application Benchmarks to test the hardware and database performance of SAP applications and components.
SAP Power Benchmarks
Today's hardware and software choices are made using a discriminating and increasingly sustainability-oriented set of criteria – decisions are no longer based on performance aspects alone.
With the help of the SAP power benchmarks, customers and partners can now take energy consumption into account when determining the appropriate hardware configuration for their IT landscapes.
The SAP power benchmarks demonstrate how SAP system configurations can be optimized for power consumption while continuing to deliver performance.
Benchmark Types
- SAP system power benchmark – The purpose of this benchmark is to show the power consumption of an entire SAP system, i.e. the power consumption of the server(s), the storage and the network to connect them.
- SAP server power benchmark – The SAP server power benchmark provides information about the power consumed by the server(s) in an SAP system environment. This encompasses CPU, memory and, in the case of a three-tier setup, the power consumed by the network connections between the servers, excluding the storage.
The key figure of this benchmark is the power efficiency indicator watts/kSAPS.
The results can be found in the SAP Benchmark Directory
