Box 1: A proximity placement group
Azure offers proximity placement groups. Proximity placement groups can be used to force grouping of different VM types into a single Azure datacenter to optimize the network latency between these different VM types to the best possible. In the process of deploying the first VM into such a proximity placement group, the VM gets bound to a specific datacenter.
Note: SAP applications based on the SAP NetWeaver or SAP S/4HANA architecture are sensitive to network latency between the SAP application tier and the SAP database tier. This sensitivity is the result of most of the business logic running in the application layer. Because the SAP application layer runs the business logic, it issues queries to the database tier at a high frequency, at a rate of thousands or tens of thousands per second. In most cases, the nature of these queries is simple. They can often be run on the database tier in 500 microseconds or less.
Box 2: Enable Accelerated Networking
To further reduce network latency between Azure VMs, we recommend that you choose Azure Accelerated Networking. Use it when you deploy Azure VMs for an SAP workload, especially for the SAP application layer and the SAP DBMS layer.
Box 3: Network Performance Monitor
Network Performance Monitor (NPM) - a cloud-based network monitoring solution for cloud-only, on-premises, and hybrid networking environments.
Network Performance Monitor offers three broad capabilities:
* Performance Monitor: You can monitor network connectivity across cloud deployments and on-premises locations, multiple data centers, and branch offices and mission-critical multitier applications or microservices. With Performance Monitor, you can detect network issues before users complain.
* Service Connectivity Monitor
* ExpressRoute Monitor
Note 2: Azure Monitor for SAP Solutions is an Azure-native monitoring product for anyone running their SAP landscapes on Azure. It works with both SAP on Azure Virtual Machines and SAP on Azure Large Instances.

Question 43

You deploy an SAP environment on Azure.
You need to validate the load distribution to the application servers.
What should you use?

A.SAPControl
B.SAP Solution Manager
C.Azure Monitor
D.SAP Web Dispatcher

Correct Answer: D

Load balancers. These are used to distribute traffic to virtual machines in the application-tier subnet. For high availability, use the built-in SAP Web Dispatcher, Azure Load Balancer, or network appliances, depending on the traffic type (such as HTTP or SAPGUI) or the required network services, such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) termination.

Overview
Litware, Inc. is an international manufacturing company that has 3,000 employees.
Litware has two main offices. The offices are located in Miami, FL, and Madrid, Spain.
Existing Environment
Infrastructure
Litware currently uses a third-party provider to host a datacenter in Miami and a disaster recovery datacenter in Chicago, IL.
The network contains an Active Directory domain named litware.com. Litware has two third-party applications hosted in Azure.
Litware already implemented a site-to-site VPN connection between the on-premises network and Azure.
SAP Environment
Litware currently runs the following SAP products:
* Enhancement Pack6 for SAP ERP Central Component 6.0 (SAP ECC 6.0)
* SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM)
* SAP Supply Chain Management (SAP SCM)
* SAP NetWeaver Process Integration (PI)
* SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW)
* SAP Solution Manager
All servers run on the Windows Server platform. All databases use Microsoft SQL Server. Currently, you have
20 production servers.
You have 30 non-production servers including five testing servers, five development servers, five quality assurance (QA) servers, and 15 pre-production servers.
Currently, all SAP applications are in the litware.com domain.
Problem Statements
The current version of SAP ECC has a transaction that, when run in batches overnight, takes eight hours to complete. You confirm that upgrading to SAP Business Suite on HANA will improve performance because of code changes and the SAP HANA database platform.
Litware is dissatisfied with the performance of its current hosted infrastructure vendor. Litware experienced several hardware failures and the vendor struggled to adequately support its 24/7 business operations.
Requirements
Business Goals
Litware identifies the following business goals:
* Increase the performance of SAP ECC applications by moving to SAP HANA. All other SAP databases will remain on SQL Server.
* Move away from the current infrastructure vendor to increase the stability and availability of the SAP services.
* Use the new Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) in Recipe Management function.
* Ensure that any migration activities can be completed within a 48-hour period during a weekend.
Planned Changes
Litware identifies the following planned changes:
* Migrate SAP to Azure.
* Upgrade and migrate SAP ECC to SAP Business Suite on HANA Enhancement Pack 8.
Technical Requirements
Litware identifies the following technical requirements:
* Implement automated backups.
* Support load testing during the migration.
* Identify opportunities to reduce costs during the migration.
* Continue to use the litware.com domain for all SAP landscapes.
* Ensure that all SAP applications and databases are highly available.
* Establish an automated monitoring solution to avoid unplanned outages.
* Remove all SAP components from the on-premises network once the migration is complete.
* Minimize the purchase of additional SAP licenses. SAP HANA licenses were already purchased.
* Ensure that SAP can provide technical support for all the SAP landscapes deployed to Azure.
