This is fascinating stuff. In the Web/Tech industry, we are by now much more used to scale-out solutions (and our workloads scale well on those), but there are certainly workloads that benefit from the massive with-system bandwidth that you get in a scale-up solution.

What does surprise me is that SAP workloads cannot be scaled out; I know that working with scale-out comes with a lot of pitfalls, and from experience too (look me up), but it seems that this kind of database-y workload could certainly be made to scale out. Am I missing something?
