IBM® technology provides a premier infrastructure for clients who have deployed SAP® solutions to drive better business outcomes. SAP on Z has the most robust, highly available hardware with near zero downtime, advanced virtualization, systems management.
Shared Memory Communication (SMC) is the latest IBM Z network feature with potential benefits of lowering CPU cost and network latency.

Other non-SAP application workloads can also see similar benefit by using SMC-D connection.
