Overview: Running SAP on Linux is an increasingly popular option these days. Though SAP has supported Linux for about 10 years, more and more companies are considering making the switch, especially those with aging Unix environments and increased pressure to lower costs and increase operational efficiency. A lower total cost of ownership (TCO) is only one driver, according to Sanjeev Aggarwal, partner with Hurwitz and Associates, a Newton, Mass.-based analyst firm. Organizations should also consider the potential impacts on reliability, scalability, security, performance and infrastructure flexibility. But as with any change, migrating to SAP on Linux must be carefully planned to avoid downtime or other adverse effects.
In this 15-minute Expert Podcast, appropriate for SAP and other IT professionals, listeners will find out more about running SAP on Linux, including:
- Why more organizations are considering running SAP on Linux - and when to consider a migration
- The pros and cons of running SAP on Linux, and impacts on short and long term SAP strategy
- How to propose and plan a migration to running SAP on Linux from other operating systems, such as Unix
