In 2021, OEDIV standardized on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM POWER as the Operating System (OS) layer to host SAP workloads. The implementation targeted SAP HANA and SAP S/4HANA environments running on IBM Power Systems in OEDIV German private-cloud data centers.
OEDIV deployed SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications with SUSE Manager to centralize OS lifecycle management and automated provisioning. The configuration used SUSE Manager capabilities for patch management, configuration drift control, and image provisioning, complemented by IBM PowerVC for virtual machine lifecycle orchestration.
The architecture integrated SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM POWER with IBM Power Systems hardware and IBM PowerVC for infrastructure automation, supporting very large SAP HANA databases including an example 11 TB instance. IBM acted as the implementation partner, aligning infrastructure provisioning and platform management with SAP HANA and SAP S/4HANA operational requirements.
Operational coverage focused on SAP application hosting, database administration, and infrastructure operations across OEDIV German private-cloud sites. The deployment explicitly improved stack performance by approximately 40 percent, reduced maintenance downtime, and automated provisioning through SUSE Manager and IBM PowerVC, streamlining governance for OS patching and lifecycle workflows.
