SAP Netweaver BWACentiq’s SAP NetWeaver BW Accelerator delivers radically improved performance and analytical results for your SAP landscape in a fully certified black-box appliance.

Expert knowledge combined with leading technology provides high-performance BI reporting and rapid time to value.

Whatever the sector, all forward-looking organisations need fast, targeted information for effective decision making. It is often the case that this information must be available real-time and delivered to all levels of management within the enterprise.

As companies continually look to cut operational costs and to optimise their revenues by responding competition and market trends, their ability to analyse critical business data is key to understanding customer behaviour and gaining competitive advantage. The traditional approach to BI had reached its limits leaving many SAP customers wanting even faster and more flexible solutions.

SAP’s NetWeaver BW Accelerator software runs specifically on a certified appliance supplied by Centiq that combines IBM infrastructure, SAP software and Centiq services. Approved and tested by SAP, Centiq’s appliance provides the speed and flexibility needed to extend the reach of your analytics.

The appliance is a fully optimised solution, consisting of 64-bit Intel blade servers, an enterprise storage array, SUSE Linux and GPFS software and a choice of switches and racking. Integration and on-going support services are delivered by Centiq’s consultants, trained and certified by SAP.

Centiq’s SAP NetWeaver BW Accelerator appliance offers rapid time to value through realisable benefits including seamless deployment, quick customisation and dramatic reductions in query times. Built on a flexible and scalable architecture, your investment today is protected long into the future.

SAP Service Orientated Architecture together with flexible infrastructure from IBM provides a complimentary and effective solution for your enterprise that is assembled and configured off-site and fully installed on-site with minimal disruption.

To deliver this, the BWA software creates a highly compressed index data structure for your chosen InfoCubes that are loaded into the appliance memory. User queries are then processed entirely in memory with results delivered back to the BI analytic engine. The appliance places the accelerator functionality within a ‘blade system’ equipped with a 64-bit Intel processors which is easily integrated into the existing BI infrastructure of SAP NetWeaver (minimum release 2004s).

High performance results are delivered by creating fully compressed index data structures for your chosen InfoCubes that are loaded and processed entirely “in-memory” with results delivered back to the BW analytical engine. The appliance is completely heterogeneous and easily integrated into any existing BW environment of SAP NetWeaver (minimum release 2004s) becoming a fully functional part of your SAP BW eco-system.

More data, more users, more advanced queries.

Business Applications Delivered. Your Way.
