Dave Krenik, Senior Solutions Manager at Hitachi-Vantara, joins us on this week\u2019s Conversations in the Cloud to discuss the company\u2019s solutions for SAP HANA. Hitachi-Vantara has partnered with SAP for more than thirty years and helps businesses make the migration to SAP HANA. Given key deadlines for SAP support for non-HANA databases in the next five years, Hitachi-Vantara is seeing customers looking to make plans for the future.\n\nThere are lots of disparate data sources and businesses are challenged to pull it all together to get an accurate picture of their customers. Hitachi-Vantara helps customers utilize SAP products including SAP HANA to help stay competitive in this area. The company is one of the leaders in enterprise certifications on the SAP HANA appliance and with SAP HANA TDI. \n\nHitachi-Vantara solutions, including their recently verified Intel\xae Select Solution for SAP HANA, take advantage of the new 2nd gen Intel\xae Scalable\xae processor with Intel\xae Optane\u2122 DC persistent memory, which provides more performance, accelerates memory queries, and helps customers scale.\n\nHitachi\u2019s storage and server adapters are unique in that they enable both monitoring and management of servers that support SAP HANA. They provide a familiar user interface that allows all admins and users to see the same status in a single pane of glass. The adapters also allow admins to make changes to their environment with just a few clicks. And, advanced analytics are integrated so users can accurately forecast their infrastructure needs, saving money and ensuring mission-critical applications are properly resourced. \n\nFor more information, visit www.hitachivantara.com.
