Google Cloud’s modernization announcement lists the X5 Series as generally available for SAP S/4HANA at scale. It specifies 43 tebibytes (TiB) of memory in a single-node configuration, replacing the previously stated 29 TiB ceiling.

Google says the larger single-node configuration allows enterprise resource planning estates to operate without distributed partitioning overhead. This is a memory-capacity announcement for enterprise application infrastructure, not a GPU count or a storage-capacity specification.

X5 appears within the announcement’s platform-modernization portfolio for mission-critical workloads. The supplied excerpt does not give processor models, virtual CPU counts, pricing, regional availability, or independent SAP workload benchmark results.
