20 Microns	Oil, Gas and Chemicals	384	$91M	India	IBM	IBM PowerVM	Network Virtualisation	2020	Silver Touch Technologies	In 2020, 20 Microns deployed IBM PowerVM as the Network Virtualisation layer to underpin a new SAP S/4HANA back office architecture. The project was delivered with IBM Business Partner Silver Touch Technologies and built on IBM Power Systems hardware to address performance and lifecycle constraints in the companys prior SAP ECC environment. IBM PowerVM was used to virtualize SAP database, production, development and quality assurance servers across a pair of IBM Power Systems H922 servers configured for high availability in 20 Microns corporate data center. Persistent storage for the SAP environment was provisioned on IBM FlashSystem 5000, and data protection was implemented with IBM Spectrum Protect and an IBM TS2900 Tape Autoloader, creating an automated backup and recovery capability for critical SAP data. The deployment scope covered core back office functions including Material Requirement Planning and CO Profitability Analysis, and it serves 105 users across 20 Microns offices in India. Silver Touch sized and configured the production and recovery architecture with IBM, completing the project in under four months from contract signature, with an actual deployment window of roughly 15 days. Operational governance included a focus on availability and recovery workflows, with IBM PowerVM enabling consolidation of SAP workloads and simplified environment provisioning for development, QA and production. Explicit results reported by 20 Microns include approximately a 60 percent reduction in processing time for some SAP operations, an example reduction from three to four hours down to about 1.5 hours for a specific job, clearer visibility into resource and profitability metrics, and automated protection of critical operations and data.
American Greetings	Retail	17000	$1.7B	United States	IBM	IBM PowerVM	Network Virtualisation	2014	n/a	In 2014, American Greetings implemented IBM PowerVM as a Network Virtualisation layer to consolidate and virtualize AIX workloads that host its global SAP landscape. The IBM PowerVM deployment was administered from American Greetings headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio and supported more than a hundred SAP systems running on AIX and DB2. The deployment positioned IBM PowerVM as the platform level virtualization control point for logical partitioning and resource isolation of SAP application servers. IBM PowerVM was configured to host AIX logical partitions running the SAP application stack including CRM 7.1, BI 7.0, ECC 6.0, MDM 7.1, Solution Manager 7.1, CE 7.3, BODS 4.0, PI 7.3, Enterprise Portal, WWI and Content Server 4.6. Functional capabilities implemented included LPAR provisioning, capacity management, and virtualization of compute resources to support database administration tasks for DB2. The Sr. SAP Basis Administrator performed installation, configuration, maintenance, upgrades and operational support of the SAP systems on IBM PowerVM, and used Unix scripting to automate routine administrative functions. Database administration activities on DB2 were coordinated with the virtualized compute layer for patches, upgrades, reorganizations, backup and restore procedures. The environment integrated SAP lifecycle and operational governance tooling, CTS+ and Solution Manager CHARM were configured to control transport promotions and change tracking across environments. Monitoring and performance management used SAP tools SMD and CCMS and third party APM tooling WILY to detect performance issues, drive root cause analysis, and inform capacity planning. Daily system checks and records of system usage, file system growth and resource utilization were used to plan future infrastructure requirements and to schedule maintenance windows. Operational scope included 24/7 system support for a global SAP landscape. Governance centered on formalized change and transport procedures using CTS+ and Solution Manager CHARM for consistent configuration promotion, and on documented tuning strategies to maximize SAP runtime performance within IBM PowerVM. Automation through custom scripts and coordinated database and OS level maintenance supported ongoing operational stability and scalability of the virtualized SAP estate.
Apple Vacations	Professional Services	590	$210M	United States	IBM	IBM PowerVM	Network Virtualisation	2013	Sirius Computer Solutions	In 2013, Apple Vacations implemented IBM PowerVM as a core element of a Network Virtualisation initiative to virtualize SAP application servers and consolidate compute resources. The deployment was targeted to support high-performance consumer web transactions alongside reliable back-office systems used for sales, margin and consumer trend analysis. The technical architecture centered on two POWER7 processor based IBM Power 770 servers running IBM PowerVM as the virtualization layer, combined with IBM XIV Storage System for consolidated block storage. The environment ran IBM AIX Version 6, IBM DB2 Version 9, IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager and mySAP Business Suite, with implementation services delivered by Sirius Computer Solutions. Functionally the engagement implemented server virtualization for the SAP ERP landscape, storage consolidation through IBM XIV and automated provisioning workflows for application volumes. The XIV storage configuration enabled rapid volume provisioning and refresh, and the PowerVM environment reduced the number of physical application servers by consolidating twelve physical servers into four virtual servers, while removing around seventy older UNIX servers through consolidation onto two Power 770 systems. Governance and operational scope covered consumer facing web infrastructure and back-office SAP operations, with process changes focused on centralized storage administration and virtual server lifecycle management. Reported outcomes included higher system performance per SAP application server from the same memory configuration, a greater than 80 percent reduction in data management and storage costs, a 50 percent reduction in storage footprint and energy costs, a 50 percent saving on energy and cooling after consolidation to Power 770 servers, an 80 percent reduction in storage administrative workload and a 10 percent reduction in application server administration costs.
