HP Teams With SAP on Enterprise SOA

01/29/2007

HP today announced that it will offer new services to support an enterprise service-oriented architecture (Enterprise SOA) blueprint from SAP, helping customers achieve better integration and alignment of people, information and business processes across business and technology.



ebizQ received the following details:

HP also will design and implement services to support key SAP NetWeaver® components, including an SAP NetWeaver Portal program for workforce integration, an SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI) program for process integration, and an SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP NetWeaver BI) program for information integration.

By offering both Enterprise SOA services and SAP NetWeaver implementation services, HP, which also offers its own SOA solutions, will be better able to help SAP customers improve business process innovation and flexibility.

These SAP-based services complement and extend the robust suite of offerings from HP Software, which provides tools and applications for SOA quality testing, governance, security and management. HP SOA Center, a key component of the offerings that is in use at hundreds of companies around the world, combines HP’s existing SOA portfolio with the recent addition of Mercury and market leading Systinet Registry and Repository. Additional information on HP SOA software offerings is available at http://www.mercury.com/us/solutions/soa.

HP additionally will offer Composite Application Factory, which will provide customers with rapid and cost-effective customized development of composite applications as well as design and implementation services for SAP NetWeaver components.

These new services are part of HP’s Adaptive Infrastructure portfolio, which helps enterprises reduce costs, improve service levels and increase the speed with which they can introduce change by transforming traditional data centers into automated, virtualized, 24x7, lights-out computing environments. As part of this portfolio, HP offers a full lifecycle of SAP services, from strategy and design through implementation, integration and management, to enable the upgrade of legacy technology and application infrastructure.

“As site of the world’s fifth largest SAP application implementation, HP understands and appreciates the benefits of SAP applications,” said Onagh Ash, senior vice president, Consulting & Integration, HP Services. “Based on our experience and close collaboration with SAP in more than 55,000 customer implementations, HP delivers a smooth and cost-effective SAP NetWeaver platform deployment so customers can realize a better return on investment.”

To drive growth, businesses need IT resources and applications that are able to adapt in real time for business value. With its flexible IT systems and services, HP helps customers build and manage computing environments that scale as business needs change.
