What is hyper threading technology in SAP BC-CST - Client/Server Technology?


SAP Term: hyper threading technology

  • Component: BC-CST

  • Component Name: Client/Server Technology

  • Description: Hyperthreading technology HTT is the implementation of multithreading in Intel processors of NetBurst architecture for instance, Pentium 4, Pentium_D, Xeon. Pipeline levels working in parallel internally are assigned multiple parallel command streams and data streams using multiple complete register records and a complex set of controls. In other words, hyperthreading is parallel processing at the level of thread level parallelism. With hyperthreading both threads and processes can be processed in parallel. For example, a task or thread can be waiting for the main memory as a result of a cache miss, while a second thread or task can be running in parallel by means of hyperthreading. On the software side a CPU behaves with hyperthreading like a symmetrical multiprocessor system. Therefore, the software does not have to be modified. The operating system only has to be SMP-enabled and should support multitasking and kernel-level threads in order to take advantage of hypert

  • Key Concepts: 
    Hyper threading technology is a feature of Intel processors that allows a single processor to act as two virtual processors. This technology enables the processor to execute multiple threads of instructions simultaneously, allowing for improved performance and multitasking capabilities. It is used in SAP's BC-CST Client/Server Technology to improve the performance of client/server applications. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Hyper threading technology can be enabled in the BIOS settings of an Intel processor. Once enabled, it will allow the processor to execute multiple threads of instructions simultaneously, resulting in improved performance and multitasking capabilities. In SAP's BC-CST Client/Server Technology, hyper threading technology can be used to improve the performance of client/server applications. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using hyper threading technology in SAP's BC-CST Client/Server Technology, it is important to ensure that the processor is powerful enough to handle the increased workload. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the operating system and other software are compatible with hyper threading technology.
