In 2017, Supreme Petrochem implemented SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications as its Operating System (OS) underpinning SAP S/4HANA workloads. The SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications deployment was executed with IBM as the implementation partner on a single IBM Power Systems S824 server, concentrating compute for SAP application tiers on a consolidated Power Systems platform.
The implementation used IBM PowerVM to create multiple virtual environments, optimized for each application, and leveraged the Virtual Persistent Memory capability to enable rapid system restarts after patches and updates. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications was configured to support SAP S/4HANA operational requirements, prioritizing consistent performance and protection against unplanned downtime as stated by the customer.
For storage and data resilience Supreme Petrochem integrated IBM FlashSystem 5000 to house SAP S/4HANA backup data and other critical application data including email and unstructured file data. A Cisco MDS 16GB SAN Switch was installed alongside the IBM storage array to increase SAN resiliency and support the consolidated server and storage architecture.
Operational scope centered on SAP operations and infrastructure management, including backup and recovery processes and enterprise email and file services. Governance emphasized platform-level availability and restart procedures tied to the Virtual Persistent Memory feature, aligning system administration and SAP application teams around consistent patch and update workflows.
