OVHcloud Canada Achieves SAP Certification for Outsourcing Partners

OVHcloud announces the launch of OVHcloud for SAP solutions in Canada, offering customers secure and automated infrastructures to deploy their SAP environments with confidence. This announcement follows the “SAP® Certified in Cloud and Infrastructure Operations” certification in Canada, obtained in July 2023, which attests to the group’s excellence in terms of organization, operations capabilities, and maintenance for hosting SAP environments within OVHcloud data centers in Canada.

SAP offers a certification program for partners that manage customer environments. SAP certifications for outsourcing partners help customers identify best-in-class service providers to meet their requirements in terms of quality, scope and geography, while certified partners can increase market visibility and drive new revenue.

The OVHcloud for SAP solutions offering is based on dedicated servers from OVHcloud High Grade range. By using instances that follow the TDI (Tailored Datacenter Integration) approach, they meet the highest reliability and performance requirements to power SAP HANA databases. Highly customizable and optimized for mission-critical workloads, High Grade dedicated servers for SAP technologies feature Dual Intel Xeon Gold processors, a large choice of memory sizes up to 1.5 TB, and SAS Hardware RAID SSD storage. They are ideally suited to SAP deployments, through a variety of use cases such as re-platforming, migrating to SAP S/4HANA  (Brownfield), creating a new SAP environment (Greenfield), or implementing a disaster recovery plan (DRP).

OVHcloud for SAP solutions also offers a range of additional features for accelerating the deployment of the most critical SAP environments. These include “SUSE Linux Enterprise Server” (SLES) OS image for SAP applications in Bring Your Own License (BYOL) mode, access to the VMware ESXi hypervisor template, and the OVHcloud Backint Agent for SAP HANA databases.

Whether deploying SAP HANA databases or hosting OLAP or OLTP workloads, these certifications and features demonstrate OVHcloud expertise in supporting deployments of the most mission-critical SAP environments in complete security and simplicity.
