Customer Reference "Siemens Chooses DB2 and SAP"
Friday, 14th September 2007
Published by:


Siemens is one of the largest technology companies. They have six major business divisions: communications, automation, power, transportation, medical and lighting. Siemens uses SAP applications to run their business. Siemens began migrating their SAP business intelligence landscape from a competing database onto DB2.

There are three main reasons they chose to move their SAP applications onto DB2:
  • Better performance
  • A less expensive hardware infrastructure
  • A lower SAP total cost of ownership
Siemens was able to reduce the total cost of ownership of SAP by building an optimized infrastructure. With the help of IBM, Siemens was able to migrate to the new system on time and on budget.
