To meet these challenges, SAP offers SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator, an appliance-like solution co-developed by SAP and Intel to leverage the advanced hardware design of Intel Xeon processors. Sun offers a solution for the SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator on the Sun Blade 6000 family with Intel Xeon server modules. SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator offers performance improvements and query flexibility with the price/performance of Intel platforms. It also reduces IT support time by performing on-the-fly data aggregation and eliminating the need for query tuning. The SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator combines high-performance software from SAP NetWeaver with Intel processors to provide a Web search engine-like capability for structured data — delivering a 10 to 100 times average speed increase for query performance and as much as 80 percent faster load times. Completely transparent, it lets users browse detailed cube data without waiting for IT staff to fine-tune databases, providing the ability to ask any question any time. Built with open hardware and OS, business process management capabilities, and BI, the SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator integrates easily into existing SAP environments without changing the data model.
