IBM Dynamic Infrastructure for mySAP Business Suite on IBM zSeries

IBM Dynamic Infrastructure (IBM DI) for mySAP Business Suite is the new systems management software that enables clients to achieve a better balance between the demand for SAP computing resources and the supply of those resources. IDI for mySAP Business Suite helps reduce total cost of ownership and improve the quality of service in SAP solution environments, while supporting the SAP Adaptive Computing Infrastructure. IBM DI for mySAP Business Suite helps clients design and implement IBM DI for SAP solutions.

This IBM Redbook describes how to map a current infrastructure to a customized installation of IBM DI. It also provides examples of an on demand solution in a heterogeneous environment that will enable customers to run their SAP environments more efficiently.

Dynamically provisioned SAP application servers assist administrators in providing business-required accountability and Service Level Agreement (SLA0 compliance and management tools.
