SAP Cloud Solutions, the real-time database platform SAP HANA, and virtualisation in conjunction with conventional IT landscapes are crucial challenges, especially for large corporations that operate their own data centers. This is why there is such a demand for what are called »trusted advisors« who can provide an all-inclusive approach to consulting on such strategic technology issues as the design, virtualisation, flexibilisation and orchestration of specific reference architectures, effective ongoing support to IT operations through service level agreements and additional management and process consulting. All for One Steeb AG - itself one of the leading private cloud providers for the operation of business software from within its data centers in Germany - uses its Grandconsult brand to advise the data centers of well-known large corporations and operates its own Joint Research & Development Lab at SAP in Waldorf together with such partners as NetApp, Cisco and VmWare. These are the kinds of technology skills and expertise that are also becoming important for transferring innovation to benefit small and mid-sized enterprises, which form All for One Steeb's core market.
