Business Tool Reduces Risks, Maximizes Investment Value and Delivers Total Cost of Ownership for SAP BW HP’s new Impact Analysis for SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) is a customized business tool that shows companies how to integrate SAP BW within their SAP R/3 and data-warehousing environments. This value-added tool enables BW customers to accurately predict the resources needed for a successful BW deployment, reduces implementation risks and maximizes SAP BW and R/3 investments.
The program includes the following activities: assessment of current data-warehouse architecture and business environments to identify how best to position SAP BW within a customer environment; description of how SAP BW can complement current data-warehouse architecture to provide optimal operational and analytical reporting; delivery of a plan for integrating BW into a customer's current and projected data-warehouse architecture; identification of the total cost of ownership associated with procuring, deploying and maintaining the SAP BW system; and a two-week program timeframe. Completion of these program activities leads to a recommendation of the appropriate HP platform required for the various database and application servers for a successful implementation of SAP BW.
