White Papers
Abstract
Running your SAP business requires optimal performance. There are multiple areas of an SAP landscape, like CPU, storage, and networking which have significant impact on your business performance. With IBM® AIX® 7.2 TL 2, the AIX® operating system supports the new communication protocol solution Shared Memory Communications over Remote Direct Memory Access (SMC-R). If, with SMC-R your network area would improve then this improves your overall business performance and results in a better revenue. This white paper summarizes the results of SAP test scenarios that demonstrate the benefits that SMC-R has for SAP workloads in a distributed SAP environment. The usage of SMC-R improves network latency, network throughput, and leads to a reduction of CPU usage.
