  Key Concepts: 
  Memory protection is a feature of the SAP Memory Management component that helps to protect the system from memory-related errors. It works by monitoring the memory usage of the system and alerting administrators when memory usage exceeds a certain threshold. This helps to prevent system crashes due to memory overload.
  
  How to use it: 
  Memory protection can be enabled in the SAP Memory Management component. Once enabled, administrators can set a threshold for memory usage and configure alerts to be sent when the threshold is exceeded. This allows administrators to take action before a system crash occurs.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to set an appropriate threshold for memory usage when enabling memory protection. If the threshold is set too low, it may trigger false alarms and cause unnecessary disruption. On the other hand, if the threshold is set too high, it may not provide enough warning before a system crash occurs.
