AMD EPYC CPUs boost SAP SD 2 Tier Performance

SAP Sales and Distribution (SAP SD)

4th Generation AMD EPYC processors are revolutionizing data center performance, power efficiency, and total cost of ownership through continuous innovation. This dual focus on performance and efficiency demonstrates AMD’s commitment to offering companies cutting-edge solutions for their data Centre needs.

At the moment, the extensive AMD EPYC ecosystem includes more than 800 different cloud instances and more than 250 different server designs. In more than 300 benchmarks, including business applications, technical computing data management, data analytics, digital services, media and entertainment, and infrastructure solutions, AMD EPYC processors have achieved performance records.

One of the most important logistics modules in SAP ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software is SAP Sales and Distribution (SAP SD). This module is essential to the management and archiving of vital business data among four main components:

Organisation Structure

By defining different units, divisions, and departments involved in the sales and distribution processes, SAP SD controls the organizational setup within the software.

Master Data

SAP SD stores material (product specs, inventory levels, and pricing) and customer (customer profiles, contact information, and transaction history) master data.

Business Processes

SAP SD manages all aspects of end-to-end , including order fulfilment, pricing, shipping, invoicing, and receiving payments. It guarantees the smooth execution and coordination of tasks linked to sales.

Reporting

With the help of SAP SD’s extensive reporting features, users can create intelligent analyses and reports using sales and distribution data. These reports offer insightful information on revenue generation, inventory management, customer trends, and sales performance.

All things considered, SAP SD is essential for improving productivity, simplifying sales and distribution processes, and facilitating well-informed decision-making in businesses using SAP ERP software.

The SAP-SD 2-Tier benchmark measures database performance in SAP Application Performance Standard units (SAPS) to assess hardware performance. Within the SAP environment, SAPS is a hardware-independent unit that measures system performance. The Sales and Distribution (SD) benchmark is the source of SAPS, which indicate how well a system can manage SAP workloads.

Vendors use their standard methodology to assess the system’s ability to support SD users during SAP benchmark testing. Every benchmark module has a weight that transforms users into a Normalised SD (NSD) number. NSD is used to calculate SAPS. SAP customers can size their SAP systems and plan their infrastructure footprint with the aid of SAPS results from the SAP SD benchmark. Customers can use this benchmark to compare platforms, plan for future growth, and perform Proof-of-Concepts (POCs) in order to choose the best hardware configuration for their SAP solution.

Regarding Bare Metal

Because SAP SD workloads are compute-intensive, 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors (9004 series) are the best option for bare metal server deployment of SAP applications. In comparison to previous-generation AMD EPYC processors, these processors maximise performance by utilising notable improvements in Instructions per Cycle (IPC), faster memory access, larger L3 cache sizes, and higher core density.

The performance gains achieved with “top of stack” processor SKUs over the course of the four generations of AMD EPYC general-purpose processors are shown in Figure 1. It also emphasises how consistently better 2nd generation AMD EPYC processors and subsequent generations are than equivalent generations of Intel Xeon processors. It is noteworthy that 5th generation Intel Xeon processors perform 53% worse than 4th generation AMD EPYC processors.

Within the Cloud

Do you want to use SAP in the cloud? Additionally, AMD EPYC processors provide extensive support in this area. Significant performance improvements across 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors on Microsoft Azure and Amazon EC2 cloud instances are shown on the left side of Figure 2.On the right side of Figure 2, an Amazon EC2 m7a.48xlarge instance with 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors outperforms one with Intel Xeon Platinum 8488C processors.

SAP-SD Performance Analysis (Curiosity Analysis) Compared to SPEC CPU 2017

Many people make an effort to explain how the SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark accurately reflects enterprise applications found in the real world. Because of the extensive stress that its performance measurements place on a system’s processor, memory subsystem, and compiler, the SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark enjoys considerable industry prominence. Users can effectively compare the performance of different systems thanks to these measurements. While SPECspeed metrics track task completion time, SPECrate metrics track work completed per unit of time.

SAP SD 2 Tier

Of these metrics, Figure 3 shows that SPECrate 2017 Integer has a strong correlation with the SAP-SD 2-Tier Benchmark Users metric. Because it enables the derivation of trustworthy estimates for SAP-SD 2-Tier Benchmark Users based on the SPECrate 2017 Integer metric results published for each EPYC SKU, this correlation is especially valuable for SAP SD 2-Tier sizing.

In summary

The SAP SD benchmark results highlight AMD EPYC processors’ exceptional performance in the cloud and on bare metal. Cutting-edge technologies are supported by AMD EPYC processors from the 4th generation, such as “Zen 4” cores based on 5nm process technology, up to 12 DDR5 memory channels supporting up to 4800GHz in memory speed support, and up to 128 (1P) or 160 (2P) PCIe Gen5 lanes that offer twice the PCIe Gen4 transfer rate.

While AMD Infinity Guard technology improves data security while in use, the 3rd generation Infinity Fabric doubles the data transfer rate of the 2nd generation Infinity Fabric.[5] The lineup of 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors is further expanded by the AMD EPYC 97×4 and AMD EPYC 9004 processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology, which are optimised models for memory-bound workloads and cloud infrastructure, respectively.

One pit bull is bad.  Three is a pack and they do develop pack mentality if unrestrained and ignored.  So tired of people who think that just because their dog is nice to them they are safe to let roam.  They aren’t.  

[quanatural]

So I drew this group of "owner and dogs"（Cario,Spade,Wilmer)..... just because I want to see it.

OK,I'm going to start my speech.🎤

P1：Obviously, this is the master-servant play.This is The Gay Falcon.

Our Cairo is always bullied, so how about making him the boss for once?...Or "dog owner".And our Spade and Wilmer were honored to be chosen as Cairo's dogs.

So you can see how triumphant Cairo is. Wilmer's malicious eyes are just because Spade is here. He doesn't like this "uninvited guest."Spade's smile, I think, is a little helpless and spoiled. "I'll let you go this time."is probably the feeling. "

Regarding the choice of dog collars for Wilmer and Spade, I think Wilmer is a young strong dog that needs to be controlled, so it needs a rivet collar with a chain to control it.Spade, on the other hand, an ordinary collar fits his appearance, and he doesn't need flashy things. (Although Cairo tugged at Spade very hard)

Also, I hope someone will notice Cairo's pink eye shadow and pink nail polish, which I think is really sexy.💅💅💅

p2：It seems that our Mr. Cairo didn't last long, and he was quickly countered by Spade and Wilmer and forcibly put on a dog collar.Oh no ... This is your ending, Cairo, but it doesn't matter, now all three of you are dogs.

But maybe Wilmer and Spade won't just let him go ... Spade will want to punish Cairo…… severely ... and Wilmer, I think he is more innocent and doesn't want to see this scene of explosion.

Well, I may publish more detailed nonsense in ao3.

Here is the Cairo eyeshadow-free version and the filter version of the first picture.

Thank you for watching.

You laid on the dirt-strewn floor of an abandoned factory, your cheek pressed against the cold concrete. The smell of rust and gunpowder filled the air and the hint of your own blood against your nostril. Each breath a struggle as the pain shot through your shoulder and stomach. You could hear the distant echoes of your team running towards the extraction point, their boots pounding against the ground, fading against the night. You had made sure they got out. That was the only thing keep you grounded in the pain you were feeling.

A dark pool spread beneath you, warm and thick. You tried to move your fingers, but even the simple motion sent a jagged spike of pain through you. You gritted your teeth, closing your eyes to the blinding flickering lights in the rafters above. There was a part of you that wished the gunfire had ended it quickly for you—like ripping off a Band-Aid. But no, it had to be this pathetic slow bleed out, the drawn-out finality on your situation.

Each shallow breath was a reminder of what you haven’t yet done. There were missions you’d planned, the threats you haven’t tracked down, the promises you’d made to your team. A future you might never see. It wasn’t supposed to end like this—not here, not now. You were the one who made the tough calls, who stood strong when others faltered. Now all you could do was listen to the distant sounds of combat and wait for the final moments to come.

Your vision blurred as you looked towards the door where your team had disappeared. You wondered if they made it. If they understood why you forced them to leave you behind. Would they see it as the ultimate act of sacrifice, or would they ever feel guilty for abandoning you? You hoped for the former. It had to be. You couldn’t let your last act be something that haunted any of them.

A faint smile tugged at your lips, the best you could manage. In the midst of the searing pain, there was a flicker of pride—the pride in your team, pride in your career. You led them through impossible situations, inspired them to be their very best. They’d remember you for that, right?

The light overhead flickered again, the bulb straining to stay lit. Your eyes grew heavier, your breathing more labored. Your fingers curled into the concrete, desperate to hold on, to fight back against the inevitable darkness. But the world was slowly slipping away, the sound growing softer, the pain dulling to a numbing ache.

In your final moments, you found yourself thinking about the people you’d never get to see again, the friends and family you’d leave behind. The annoying Co-captain you were forced to work with for this mission was also someone you knew you would miss. Try as you might, you grew found of the man even as he tried his best to get on your nerves every chance he got. The things you’d wanted to say to him but never did. Regret mingled with acceptance as your body grew colder, the life draining from you with each passing second.

The door creaked open, and a faint light spilled into the room. Your eyes fluttered open one last time, your gaze drifting towards the familiar silhouette in the doorway. Price.

“John.” You whispered.

“There you are, Darling.” He began approaching you. His hand holding onto the wound in your stomach, stopping from the blood seeping out. “Let’s get you patch up.”

He tried to maneuver you even with every movement you made was painful all over again. It ended with you being carried Bridal style in his arms.

“Why did you come back?” You questioned him, with him now in your presence, you tried your best to keep your eyes open. You looked at the man, the man that radiated confidence and often times, arrogance. But you saw none of it from where you laid in his arms.

You saw fear and worry.

“You can’t get rid of me that easily.” He answered walking a bit faster knowing the urgency of your injuries. “You’re important to me and I would never allow anything to happen to you.”

At those words, the full meaning of his words you found yourself drowning into the darkness as the images of a life you can still have was now filled with waking up in the arms of the man you had thought was worse human being you had the misfortune of ever meeting in your life.

Your consciousness was in and out, glimpses of screaming and crying was ingrained in your unconscious state. Some were from your team, some were from the Captain but the next thing you heard was the rhythm of your breaths. Slow and shallow. The beeping of medical equipment became more consistent as you regained your sense of self, your awareness fighting against the haze of painkillers and the show from your injuries. You felt like you were underwater, everything blurred and muted.

The first thing you noticed was the sterile smell of the hospital room and the warmth of a soft blanket draped over you. You slowly blinked your eyes open, your gaze focusing on the ceiling’s bland whiteness. Your shoulders throbbed with dull pain, your stomach ached, but you were alive. The realization was both a relief and a shock, your memory flashing back to the gunfight, the blood, the desperate choice to stay behind.

There was movement in your left. You turned your head, grimacing at the stiffness in your neck, and saw Captain John Price sitting beside your bed. His face etched with concern, his cap resting on his knee, his weathered eyes fixed on you. The lines in his face seemed deeper, as if the worry for you aged him overnight.

“Welcome back, Spades.” He said, his voice low and steady. It was the kind of voice that had pulled many through the darkness of times, you had becoming a believer of it when he came back for you that night.

You tried to speak, but your throat felt dry and tight. Instead, you gave him a faint nod, a weak smile playing at the corner of your lips. The effort was exhausting, but you didn’t want him to see how much pain you were in.

"You scared the hell out of us," Price continued, leaning forward slightly. "Thought we lost you back there." He glanced down at his cap, turning it in his hands. "But you held on. Tough as nails, just like always."

Your memories came back in fragmented pieces—Price’s voice in your earpiece, the gunfire, the shouting, and the last thing you remembered before everything went dark: his arrival and his confession. He told you how important you were to him, just as you slipped away. It had been so sudden, so unexpected, and you didn’t have the strength to respond.

Your eyes locked with his, searching for the same emotion he’d shown back in that factory. You saw it there, a mix of relief and something deeper, something more personal. Price seemed to realize what you were thinking, and he sighed looking down at this cap again.

“Look, Spade,” He sighed, his voice softer now, almost hesitant. This was not the same Captain that thrived in arguing with you constantly. “I meant was I said before you…you know.” He gestured in the air vaguely, his hand indicating the medical equipment surrounding your bed. “I wasn’t sure if you’d heard me, but I couldn’t let you go without saying it. I know it’s not the best time or place, but I couldn’t keep it to myself any longer.”

You swallowed, the words finally coming to you. “I heard you, John.” You said, your voice. I just couldn’t respond.” You took a shaky breath, gathering your strength. “I—” Your voice faltered, but you managed to steady it. “I don’t know what to say but you’re important to me too, Price.”

Price nodded, his expression softening with relief now. “It’s okay. We don’t have rush into anything. You just focus on getting better, and we’ll figure out the rest.” He gave you a small smile. “I’m just glad you’re back with us.”

It took months before you were medically cleared and even allowed back in base. You were welcomed with the sight of your team, wrapping you in their arms, tears falling in each and every single one of them when you returned back better than ever.

“Welcome back, Spade.” It was Price that had interrupted the mini reunion with the rest of your team.

“Captain.” You smiled, for once you weren’t here to argue about him with what had transpired in the mission that left you injured and almost at the brink of death.

“I think there are some paperworks that need your attention at the moment.” He announced ruining your reunion.

You playfully rolled your eyes at the man. Typical for him at this point.

“Oh, by the way, don’t be late for dinner.”

You raised your brows at his last statement before he left you at the hands of your team, each and every single one of them wondering what has transpired during the mission and your recovery.

“What does he mean by dinner, Cap?” One of your Sergeants turned her attention towards you.

“Since when have you been buddy buddy with the worst man you had the misfortune of meeting, Spade?” Your lieutenant added.

“Go easy on me.” You sighed knowing so much has changed between you and the Captain, but it was a good change.

Who would have ever thought it would take a near death experience for you and one Captain John Price to be on good terms and eventually start a relationship that most of your team as well as his own have guess to eventually happen between the two of you.

A Texas duo has been arrested in connection to a $1 million theft from a Texas Walmart.

The suspects of the large-scale theft operation – Ryan Munoz and Carmelo Amigleo, both 18 years old, of San Angelo – were arrested Sunday without incident. The two are being accused of stealing over $1 million worth from a Walmart over the course of a year, according to the San Angelo Police Department.

The police have not said whether the theft involved money, merchandise, or both. In a press conference released Monday, SAPD Chief Travis Griffith said the $1 million was stolen by “employees” but did not confirm whether the two suspects were Walmart employees.

An investigation began July 24 after police were tipped off that a large-scale theft had been ongoing at the San Angelo Walmart. On July 28, detectives found evidence at nearby homes and sent search warrants for the two men, who were arrested shortly thereafter.

In a press conference released Monday, Griffith encouraged local citizens to provide anonymous information related to the case, which remains ongoing.

“The safety and well-being of our community remain a top priority, and the SAPD will continue to pursue any additional leads in this case,” the SAPD wrote in a press release.

Munoz and Amigleo have a bond set for $350,000 and both remain in jail.

Other Personality Disorders

This post is about personality disorders that used to exist in the DSM or ICD but don’t anymore. You cannot be diagnosed with these disorders, as they’re not in any diagnostic manual; you would be diagnosed with Other Specified Personality Disorder (or the ICD-11 equivalent) instead.

Passive-Aggressive / Negativistic (PA/NegPD)

A pervasive pattern of negativistic attitudes and passive resistance to demands for adequate performance, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Masochistic / Self-Defeating (Ma/SDPD)

A pervasive pattern of self-defeating behavior, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts. The person may often avoid or undermine pleasurable experiences, be drawn to situations or relationships in which he or she will suffer, and prevent others from helping him or her.

Sadistic (SaPD)

A pervasive pattern of cruel, demeaning, and aggressive behavior, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Depressive / Melancholic (De/MePD)

A pervasive pattern of depressive cognitions and behaviors, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Other Personality Disorders

Turbulent

Turbulent PD has never existed in any DSM. It’s part of Millon’s theorised personality disorder taxonomy, but doesn’t appear in any other literature.

It seems to be an alternate way of categorising and defining hypomania & cyclothymic disorder, and is similar to ADHD, NPD & HPD.

Millon classes it on a spectrum from ebullient personality type -> exuberant personality style -> turbulent personality disorder.

Haltlose

Theorised in German, Russian, and French psychiatry.

Haltlose translates to “unstable” (literally, “without footing”) and refers to a “drifting, aimless and irresponsible lifestyle: a translation might be ‘lacking a hold' on life or onto the self)”.

“Those with haltlose personality disorder have features of frontal lobe syndrome, sociopathic and histrionic personality traits”.

Someone with haltlose PD “lacks concentration and persistence”, and “lives in the present only”. They are “easily persuaded, and [are] often led astray”.

Haltlose PD is similar to AsPD as there is “an inability to learn from experience, and no sincere sense of remorse”. They are often described as ‘lovable rouges’.

(Cullivan, R, ‘‘Haltlose’ type personality disorder (ICD-10 F60.8)’, Psychiatric Bulletin, 1998, pp. 58-59).

Immature

Immature PD was mentioned in the DSM-III as a specifier for Other Specified PD, but removed in later editions.

It seems to be a combination of borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, antisocial, dependent, schizoid and avoidant PDs.

Almeida et al. suggest the following criteria for Immature PD: irresponsibility; impulsivity; unreliability; easily swayed; mood swings; expect overindulgence from others; dependency on others; ability for remorse or regret but it’s “light and fleeting”; inability to manage assets; inability to follow plans; quick to lie; unable to delay gratification; quick to frustration; devaluation of others; risk-taking behaviour; unstable relationships and behaviour; feels both entitled and worthless; attention seeking; recklessness; shyness; ungrateful; over-familiar with others; unable to plan for the future; substance use.

They also suggest 3 subtypes of Immature PD: the dramatic and emotional subtype, the shy subtype, and the mixed subtype.

(Almeida et al., 'Immature Personality Disorder: Contribution to the Definition of this Personality', Clinical Neuroscience & Neurological Research, 2019, pp. 1-16).

Eccentric and Psychoneurotic

These two personality disorders existed only as ‘other specified’ PDs in the ICD-10, where no definition is given.

Frank had returned from the war unscathed, but he arrived with news that he'd be moving to Sim Angeles in the Del Sol Valley. Some of his shipmates had told him that the SAPD was recruiting for more officers and they'd accepted his application. He had just enough time to pack and get back down there. His parents were shocked by the suddenness of his move, but they were tearfully happy nonetheless. Lena took it harder than Gordon, as she was not ready for him to leave the nest, but she knew he must. He was 20 years old, after all. Gordon set up a trust for his son and put $24,000 in it. He also bought him a used 1940 Fitz Coupe. "I'm proud of you son. Go make us proud."

I still drew Spade and O'Shaughnessy.

The scene corresponding to this painting is the end of the movie: when everyone is gone, they start to be alone ...

I said that I did laugh from beginning to end when I watched The Maltese Falcon.But this is a film noir after all, mainly about the struggle of human nature.

The atmosphere at the end of the film impressed me deeply and Let me have mixed feelings, so I drew this picture in such an artistic style.I like all the villains.
