The SAP NetWeaver BI Accelerator is a new appliance-like product available as an optional add-on to SAP NetWeaver BI-that offers performance improvements and query flexibility at a cost that reflects its technology foundation. The BI Accelerator relies on Intel Xeon processors, the most widely deployed server architecture in the world, to deliver the benefits of an appliance architecture.

The NetWeaver BI Accelerator is a powerful analytic engine that sits alongside a BI server and offers fast response to complex, ad hoc queries against large InfoCubes, without requiring the effort to pre-compute aggregates.
