Running SAP, but tired of the steep costs associated with SAP-provided support, services, and system growth? You’re not alone. 

The good news is that TidalScale and Spinnaker Support have recently partnered to directly address these concerns. Together, we can reduce your IT operating expenses by over 60% over a typical six-year period.  

To help explain how this is done, we have produced an on-demand video with myself and Eric Fitzpatrick, TidalScale’s Director of Solutions Engineering. In the recording, we describe how to maximize your SAP value, minimize your infrastructure and support costs, and then continue to save on your overall system value for years after. 

Who Is TidalScale?

TidalScale is the industry leader in software-defined server technology. Their software solution aggregates the memory, cores, and I/O of multiple physical servers to create a virtual, software-defined server. These virtual servers enable in-memory performance for database and analytics workloads, eliminating the need for costly scale-up solutions or complex scale-out infrastructure.  

The servers are built upon standard commodity hardware, require no changes to applications and operating systems, and can be deployed within minutes on-premises or in the cloud. In this way, TidalScale lets you run and scale your data center remotely, on lower-cost infrastructure, and with reduced software licensing costs. 

What Our Partnership Offers

Spinnaker Support is a leading global provider of third-party SAP support, managed services, and consulting for mid-size to Fortune 100 global enterprises. Through our ISO-certified processes and global engineering team, our customers benefit from more responsive, comprehensive, and affordable services for their SAP enterprise applications and technologies. 

As partners, Spinnaker Support and TidalScale offer SAP customers a complementary set of services, both of which lessen the dependence on and the high cost of SAP’s support and service. This operational alternative provides you with flexibility, cost relief, and a welcome break from SAP’s constant sales pressure.
