Frequently Asked Questions
How large a HANA database can this support?
With 16TB of memory it hosts very large in-memory HANA datasets in a single scale-up node; usable size depends on HANA sizing rules and data compression.
Is this configured for SAP certification?
It is built to Dell and SAP HANA Tailored Datacenter Integration practices so it aligns with certified scale-up deployment requirements.
Can memory be expanded later?
This configuration is fully populated at 16TB, the platform maximum, so it is sized for the largest supported in-memory footprint upfront.
