SAP Storage Layout
WFT's SAP Data Layout service translates the unique performance and capacity characteristics of each individual file system (SAP Data, Indexes, etc..) and maps them directly to the SAN/NAS storage array. Landscapes can range from dozens to hundreds of servers. This translates to the potential of having a total number of file systems that can reach into the thousands. SAP specific metrics like SAPS for each component are taken into consideration in designing this layout so that each component resides on the appropriate storage tier.

SAP Performance Assessment
Many landscapes experience degradation in overall performance, especially as the landscape grows in capacity and concurrent users. Performance Optimization solution evaluates all the critical components of the SAP or Oracle infrastructure, from data layout to database SQL tuning and all layers in-between, to pinpoint the bottlenecks and determine whether an individual component reached it's performance limit.
The uniqueness of this solution lies in the fact that the analysis is done at a specific point in time across all the layers in the I/O stack starting all the way from the application down to the disk spindle in the storage array.
