SAP(R) APO leads the industry on Tru64 UNIX AlphaServer systems


Supply chain environments benefit from real-time performance

Compaq Tru64 UNIX AlphaServer ES45 systems established a new performance
level for a four-processor system running the SAP Advanced Planner and
Optimizer (SAP APO) two-tier Demand Planning Version 3.0A Standard
Application benchmark. The benchmark demonstrates the power of
AlphaServer systems with Tru64 UNIX running SAP liveCache, which demands
large memory.

"This benchmark further demonstrates the ability of Compaq, in concert
with SAP, to meet the most demanding business requirements and robust
infrastructure needs of supply chain management solutions," said Rich
Marcello, vice president and general manager of Compaq's High
Performance Systems Division. "Through collaborative testing and
implementation, Compaq and SAP continue to provide the high-performance,
reliable and scalable solutions that enable our customers to make better
business decisions."
