Frequently Asked Questions

Is this R660 a certified SAP HANA appliance?

We configure the R660 to a Dell-certified HANA topology, including the validated memory and storage layout; we confirm the exact certification entry for your HANA release in the quote.

How much memory does my HANA workload need?

HANA sizing follows your in-memory dataset plus working and delta space; we right-size the DDR5 population from your SAP sizing report rather than over-provisioning.

Can the R660 also run non-SAP in-memory databases?

Yes — the same memory-optimized configuration suits other in-memory OLAP and high-throughput OLTP engines. We tune the storage and networking accordingly.
