Immediately we’re saying the final availability of Google Compute Engine “ultramem” memory-optimized machine sorts. You’ll be able to provision ultramem VMs with as much as 160 vCPUs and practically 4TB of memory–the most vCPUs you’ll be able to provision on-demand in any public cloud. These ultramem machine sorts are nice for working memory-intensive manufacturing workloads similar to SAP HANA, whereas leveraging the efficiency and adaptability of Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
The ultramem machine sorts provide probably the most assets per VM of any Compute Engine machine kind, whereas supporting Compute Engine’s progressive differentiators, together with:
SAP-certified for OLAP and OLTP workloads
Since we introduced our partnership with SAP in early 2017, we’ve quickly expanded our help for SAP HANA with new memory-intensive Compute Engine machine sorts. We’ve additionally labored intently with SAP to check and certify these machine sorts to convey you validated options to your mission-critical workloads.
Our supported VM sizes for SAP HANA now meet the broad vary of Google Cloud Platform’s clients’ calls for. Over the past 12 months, the dimensions of our licensed cases grew by greater than 10X for each scale-up and scale-out deployments. With as much as 4TB of reminiscence and 160 vCPUs, ultramem machine sorts are the biggest SAP-certified cases on GCP to your OLAP and OLTP workloads.

Most reminiscence per node and per cluster for SAP HANA on GCP, over time |
We additionally provide different capabilities to handle your HANA surroundings on GCP together with automated deployments, and Stackdriver monitoring. Click on right here for a better have a look at the SAP HANA ecosystem on GCP.
As much as 70% low cost for dedicated use
We’re additionally excited to share that GCP now gives deeper dedicated use reductions of as much as 70% for memory-optimized machine sorts, serving to you enhance your complete value of possession (TCO) for sustained, predictable utilization. This lets you management prices by quite a lot of utilization fashions: on-demand utilization to begin testing machine sorts, dedicated use reductions if you end up prepared for manufacturing deployments, and sustained use reductions for mature, predictable utilization. For extra particulars on dedicated use reductions for these machine sorts examine our docs, or use the pricing calculator to evaluate your financial savings on GCP.
GCP clients have been doing thrilling issues with ultramem VMs
GCP clients have been utilizing ultramem VMs for quite a lot of memory-intensive workloads together with in-memory databases, HPC purposes, and analytical workloads.
Colgate has been collaborating with SAP and Google Cloud as an early person of ultramem VMs for S/4 HANA.
“As a part of our partnership with SAP and Google Cloud, we have now been an early tester of Google Cloud’s 4TB cases for SAP answer workloads. The machines have carried out nicely, and the outcomes have been constructive. We’re excited to proceed our collaboration with SAP and Google Cloud to collectively create market altering improvements based mostly upon SAP Cloud Platform working on GCP.”

Getting began
These ultramem machine sorts can be found in us-central1, us-east1, and europe-west1, with extra international areas deliberate quickly. Keep up-to-date on extra areas by visiting our obtainable areas and zones web page.
It’s simple to configure and provision n1-ultramem machine sorts programmatically, in addition to through the console. To be taught extra about working your SAP HANA in-memory database on GCP with ultramem machine sorts, go to our SAP web page, and go to the GCP Console to get began.
