SAP on Windows NT

Windows NT has now succeeded in establishing itself as a platform for SAP R/3. Initial doubts about the suitability of Windows NT as an operating system for a mission-critical application have been eliminated by a considerable number of productive installations. Therefore, the issue of choosing a platform for SAP R/3 (one of the UNIX variations, Windows NT, or OS/400) is much simpler now than in the pioneering days of two years ago.This book is a sort of R/3-NT compendium. It deals with all relevant matters concerning the question of whether and within which limits Windows NT is suitable as a platform for R/3. Inthis way, it also provides the reader with a first orientation for deciding on a specific R/3 platform. The book is based on the experience of the Competence Center for SAP R/3 under Windows NT (iXOS R/3NTC) as well as on information gathered by the authors from many committed experts working on the subject of R/3 under Windows NT, last but not least from SAP itself.Key features: o the positioning of the NT platform as a base for SAP R/3o overview of available databases and processor platformso introduction to the NT functionality relevant for operation of R/3 o Practice-or
