  3. Company Overview • About Callaway Golf • Founded in 1982 by Ely Callaway • Leading manufacturing of golf equipment • HQ in Carlsbad, California • Brands consist of Callaway, Odyssey, Top-Flite, Ben Hogan • Maker of the Big Bertha Driver • Callaway Golf – Big Name, Small Company!

  4. Facts About SAP Databases • As much as 65% or more of the data in a typical SAP database is not used or is rarely used • Until now, customers were forced to place their entire multi-terabyte SAP database on Tier 1 storage • SAP customers provision Tier 1 storage to accommodate future needs & not current needs • SAP customers provision Tier 1 storage to accommodate peak volume processing

  5. SAP Storage Cost Challenges • Traditional SAP storage management methods are costly and labor intensive • The entire SAP production environment is commonly placed on tier-1 storage for best performance. With continuous growth, storage costs keep rising. • Storage resources are now fully provisioned to accommodate current and estimated future needs. • Complex storage reconfiguration requires expertise in both SAP and storage, and usually requires SAP production downtime.

  6. Cost Savings Impact of VMAX & FAST VP • Cost savings from CAPEX perspectives • FAST VP configuration vs. all-FC configuration • Effect of data tiering • Cost savings from OPEX perspectives • Power savings • Higher density -> less floor space square footage • Less effort in provisioning new storage • Less effort in managing storage

  7. CAPEX & OPEX SAVINGS WITH FAST VP • Initial CAPEX savings were calculated using list prices • Tiering down to SATA savings were calculated using list prices
