A company's SAP application has a backend SQL Server database in an on-premises environment.

Memory Optimized Instances: These instances are designed to deliver fast performance for workloads that process large data sets in memory. They are ideal for high-performance databases like SAP and applications with high memory utilization.

High Memory Utilization: Both the SAP application and the SQL Server database have high memory demands as per the on-premises performance data. Memory optimized instances provide the necessary memory capacity and performance.

Instance Types:

For the SAP application, using a memory optimized instance ensures the application has sufficient memory to handle the high workload efficiently.

For the SQL Server database, memory optimized instances ensure optimal database performance with high memory throughput.

Operational Efficiency: Using the same instance family for both the application and the database simplifies management and ensures both components meet performance requirements.
