SAP SE has announced that Infosys Limited has gone live with SAP Business Suite powered by SAP HANA.
“With this deployment we are running the core processes of our more than 165,000 people, more than US$8.25 billion in revenue, tens of millions of square feet of real estate and facilities and tens of thousands of projects running on SAP HANA,” said U B Pravin Rao, chief operating officer of Infosys. “The speed, scale and mission-criticality of this deployment is proof of our unmatched excellence in skills, capabilities and agility that Infosys can bring to bear to our customers' SAP landscapes at a massive scale.”
“We are very excited that Infosys has chosen to build their future with SAP HANA,” said Gerhard Oswald, member of the Executive Board of SAP SE. “The professional services business is one of the most rapidly changing industries today. It is fantastic to see such a large customer in this industry move its SAP Business Suite software to SAP HANA, validating our transformational investments in this technology innovation.”
With more than 150,000 users on the system, this is currently the world’s largest single instance of SAP Business Suite powered by SAP HANA. The system is deployed on a Hitachi Unified Compute platform for SAP HANA. With SAP HANA, Infosys expects to accelerate its financial closing processes, progressively move more and more batch activities into a real-time environment and renew the whole user experience with the SAP Fiori user experience.
