Poll - Large ECC 6.0 system on Linux

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hello,

We are analyzing the option of switching from Windows 2008/Oracle platform on Linux and we would like to know if there are large ECC 6.0 systems productive on Linux? We have regularly more than 5000 concurrent users in a system with a consistent .5 seconds response time.

Could you please state the Linux distribution and DB that you are using and the size of productions system.

Thank you in advance for your help.

We run two ERP 6.0 (both around 1000 concurrent users) where the oracle database still resides on HP-UX with application servers on SLES11. We have a total of 8 application servers shared for both systems with 72gb memory and 25000 SAPS each. Response times are around 500ms.

Why do you consider moving from windows to linux? The main advantage of linux is the cheap and fast x86_64 hardware, but the same goes for windows. You should get roughly the same performance on both platforms.

Cheers Michael

We run a 3,1 TB database (MaxDB) on SuSE Linux with around 1000 concurrent users. I don't see why an appropriate sized environment could not run 5000 or more users. Linux is VERY stable and is also development platform of SAP.

can I ask total memory in the database server?

> can I ask total memory in the database server?

Because we have to provide an avg. response time < 450 ms worldwide we put 146 GB memory in the DB (+ CI).

Hi Eugen,

I'd check [www.sap.com/linux|http://www.sap.com/linux] and move to Brochures and Whitepapers. There you find customer success stories. The largest LInux Installation among them has 2.000.000 SAPS on x86_64 hardware combined. Keep in mind, this success story is already 2 years old. I wouldn't be suprised, if there are already larger Linux installations out there for which we do not have the permission of the customer to make a success story out of it.

Best, Hannes
