Let's take a look at Energy usage

And how it can be eco-friendly?

What doesSAP say?

What the future looks like?

Who is using the energy?

What can be saved?


SAP view: UN Global Sustainability Goals


SAP Target areas on UN Global Goals

SAP can create the biggest and most direct value within the economic layer with the help of our core competency of improving business process management, resulting in a specific focus on UN

Global Goals 8, 9, 10, and 12.


SAP Target areas on UN Global Goals

Our best input to the SAP UN Global Goals is 9 and 12.

Consumption

In 2020, energy consumption of data centres is expected to account for 3.5% of total worldwide carbon emissions.

Projected to grow to nearly 40% by 2040.

Who are the big Data Centre energy users?


Energy Savings

Data centres are predicted to use 20% of the world's electricity by 2025, more than any other sector.

Energy-intensive industry shares of total OECD industrial sector energy consumption, 2012 and 2040 (% of total)

Energy-intensive industry shares of total non-OECD industrial sector energy consumption, 2012 and 2040 (% of total)


Case Study

Energy & Archiving Savings


Case Study

Monthly archiving KPI sheet APRIL to JUN 2020

Therefore, total 55TB is saved

21TB applying SAP’s own compression information, this becomes 16TB saved in the system

- 16TB on Production- 16TB on DR system- 16TB on the PRE-PROD Copy- 7TB estimated on other copies


Case Study

The current environment has 10.5TB on the live database, which means the full storage is a

multiple of 3.5 times across the landscape; that equates to 37TB which is currently

consuming energy.

….And archiving has saved 55TB

That’s 60% of the TOTAL energy costs associated with data storage / retention saved

This is a year-on-year saving for the business


Using standard global pricing

The average energy price is now £0.13 / €0.15 per kWh for business users.

The standard calculation is 1 TB per year = 600kwh

For 55TB this equates to €5,000 per year

JUST IN ENERGY !!!

BUSINESS SIZE USAGE/ YEAR UNIT PRICE/ KWH

STANDING CHARGE COST PER YEAR

Micro Business 8,000 kWh 16.74p 27.40p £1,439

Small Business 20,000 kWh 14.83p 26.83p £3,064

Medium Business 40,000 kWh 13.68p 26.41p £5,568

Large Business 80,000 kWh 12.93p 26.20p £10,439


Hidden Benefits

Cost of Storage (HANA, AWS……) – the REAL reason for DATA ARCHIVING

Average €33 / GB / year

For 55TB this means a saving of €1.8M on the physical cost of data storage per year

Environmental

• Manufacturing of the physical discs

• Heating / cooling costs server rooms

• Maintenance

• Waste / disposal costs

Operational

• Faster back up / restore times

• General performance improvements

• Preparing for move to S/4HANA


Takeaways: Energy / Archiving savings

STORAGE CAPACITY REDUCTIONS

AUDITABLE DATA - SAFE , SECURE, TRACEABLE

ENERGY CONSUMPTION SAVINGS

LESS DATA; LESS RISK

Carlsberg have achieved savings greater than €2 Million on their archiving projects by removing 55TB into archive

Carlsberg has saved 60% of their TOTAL energy consumption related to data storage based on the 55TB archived, which is €5K / year on energy alone

Securing data in to archive prepares it, using the standard SAPtechnology, for long-term retention and retains a clear record ofwhat was done, when and by whom.

Archiving/ILM as the key platform means retention & deletion are enacted to reduce risks of non-compliance to GDPR

DVM: Value Proposition for S4 move

EXPERTISE WORK PROCESS CONTINUITY

Global DVM Strategy by TJC Group with archiving automate ASC in ECC,

BW, EWM,APO,CRM or Solman

Copy/Paste your DVM strategy with installation of ASC on

Preparation to move ECCfully to the

Cloud

• Data Archiving program on technical & business Objects

• TJC Archiving Sessions Cockpit [ASC] for workload automation

• Database Volume reduction for performance improvement

• Archive files located on AWS for cost-savings and resilience

• No further investment in ‘soon-to-be-redundant’ infrastructure

Direct savings on AWS storage relocation from On-Premise – 2.1TBarchive files. Significant year-on-year £££ savings per annum with the benefit of increased capacity for resilience and security

Dunelm: Takeaways

DATA ARCHIVING STARTED BY DUNELM

GREATER RESULTS WITH THE ASC ARCHIVE SESSIONS COCKPIT

TJC TO STREAMLINE DATA ARCHIVING RESULTS

AWS CLOUD STORAGE

Data Archiving started in-house manually but It was identified they required more specific knowledge & resources to move it forward for greater benefits.

TJC expertise maximised the results by identifying and working on more archive objects and larger volume reductions

The Big Win: automating manual processes with the Archiving Sessions Cockpit (ASC), an application certified by SAP, reduces the long-term costs

Further reducing costs and energy consumption moving archive files into the cloud and with duplication for resilience.

Final thoughts


Final Thoughts

TCO:

Have you considered aspects such as DataVolume reductions & Energy savings?

S/4HANA Platform move:

Is your Organisation considering how to achieve the savings on their HANA memory costs?

• Preparing ECC in readiness for S4• Migrating over to HANA and then S4
