HANA on POWER

BIG NEWS! RISE with SAP on PowerVS is HERE!!

IBM Cloud is now a premier hyperscaler option for RISE with SAP. For the 10,000+ businesses running SAP on IBM Power, this is your streamlined path to the cloud.

What does this mean for you?
➡️ Faster Migration: Move to SAP S/4HANA Cloud up to 25% faster.
➡️ Proven Reliability: Built on the platform recognized for the highest levels of availability and security.
➡️ Lower Costs: We proved it ourselves—IBM’s own transformation cut infrastructure op-ex by 30% with 100% availability.

And – really good – you get superior infrastructure (Power server) for the same price as x86 at other hyperscalers!
