Cost per SAPS based on a cloud platform

[Former Member]

Can anyone tell me or point me in the direction where I can get cost per SAPS information based on various cloud platform independent solutions. I hear IBm can do this at 7c per SAP but this seems incredibly cheap.

Thanks

Hello,

according to the [SAP Standard Application Benchmark Publication Policy|http://www.sap.com/solutions/benchmark/PDF/Benchm_Publ_Proc_3_2.pdf], chapter 4.2.8, this metric is not allowed:

Price/performance is not a metric of certified SAP Standard Application Benchmarks. It is not permitted to release and/or compare any price information of hardware, software and service in conjunction with a SAP Standard Application Benchmark result. A price reference based on other benchmark organizations (e.g., TPC, SPEC, etc.) is permitted, as long as price is part of the benchmark metric and the benchmark disclosure is publicly available.

Kind regards,

Matthias
