Discover how in-memory computing enables instant decision making

Today's organisations generate massive amounts of data as a result of the highly connected economy we operate in. CIOs and organisations desire the ability to analyse this growing asset of information quickly and to make decisions that can affect the outcome of opportunities and risks in almost real-time. 

Analysing data in real-time sounds ambitious, but with SAP HANA – SAP High Performance Analytic Appliance - it is becoming a real possibility for CIOs. 

SAP HANA uses next-generation analytics and data management capabilities with "in-memory" computing technology which carries out all the processing in its RAM, 10,000x faster than using hard disks, enabling companies to analyse large volumes of data and run complex simulations.

This CIO webinar in association with SAP will include customer examples of the applications of this new technology as well as an expert from SAP to describe how SAP HANA can bring instant decision making to your organisation.

Key Takeaways

  • Hear HP discuss the business advantages that integrating HANA has had for their organisation
  • Combine high-volume transactions with analytics to improve processes such as planning, forecasting and pricing promotion optimisation
  • Bring all your enterprise data from any source within reach of decision-makers in seconds - not weeks or months - in an easy-to consume format
  • Increase business productivity and agility by reducing business users' reliance on IT to design analytical models - Enhance and accelerate business performance
  • Handle growing data volumes and complexity more efficiently while reducing the cost of managing your organisation's IT landscape

CIO White Papers

The cloud 2015 vision

Cloud computing is an important transition and a paradigm shift in IT services delivery - one that promises large gains in efficiency and flexibility at a time when demands on data centers are growing exponentially. The tools, building blocks, solutions, and best practices for cloud computing are evolving and challenges to deploying cloud solutions need to be considered.

The consumerisation of technology

iPads are the must-have fad. Android is the rising mobile platform -- Everywhere you turn, the news is about personal, smart, mobile devices and their impact on business and on IT.

Big data analytics

Broadly, there are two ways to think of Big Data technologies. The first is as an extension of what many organisations are already doing with business analytics. Gaining insight from business information is something that has been happening for decades, but the challenges and opportunities are now greater than ever before.

Virtualisation: benefits, challenges and solutions

The majority of organisations have already implemented server virtualisation and most intend to implement additional server virtualisation during the next year. The primary factors driving the movement to deploy server virtualisation are cost savings and the ability to dynamically provision and move VMs among physical servers. There are however, a number of significant challenges associated with server virtualisation.
