Overview
In December 2007, VMware announced that SAP will support its suite of enterprise applications running in VMware production environments. As part of a global technology partner agreement, SAP and VMware have jointly tested and certified major applications such as SAP ERP, CRM and Supply Chain Management for use in VMware ESX Server 3.0 virtual machines hosted on leading server platforms from Dell, Fujitsu-Siemens, HP, IBM and Sun. The applications will be supported on 64-bit versions of Windows and Linux, and later this year on Sun Solaris x64.

SAP’s commitment to fully support its applications on VMware Infrastructure is a boon both to VMware and SAP. The partnership gives VMware the opportunity to address an additional large segment of the enterprise market, and enables SAP to sell its products on the industry-leading virtualization platform. The deal also benefits end users, by bringing to SAP customers the benefits of virtualization, including increased server utilization, streamlined applications deployment, and reduced costs.
