SAP Gets Behind VMware Virtualization
SAP is going to support VMware ESX Server in 64-bit Windows and Linux production environments. The German software maker, many of whose customers have been using VMware for a while now anyway, said Wednesday that it had certified hardware from Dell, Fujitsu, HP and IBM, something SAP's rival Oracle doesn't do because it's also competing with VMware. VMware says it's been working for 'quarters' on the certification project with SAP, ascribing the time it took to SAP's finicky testing of its mission-critical business apps. Anyway, VMware Infrastructure is the only virtualization platform that supports SAP on both Windows and Linux on industry-standard boxes - particularly Windows since there's little SAP on Linux, the company said.
