SAP and Microsoft

The decade-long close partnership between Microsoft and SAP, fueled by the complementary nature of our philosophies and respective market segments, has resulted in unrivaled solution for our joint customers: an integrated system software platform for mySAP.com from a single source.
With the agreement signed between Steve Ballmer (CEO Microsoft) and Henning Kagermann (CEO SAP AG) on May 12th, 2004, the companies announced a significant expansion of their long-standing relationship based on a shared commitment to Web services as the foundation for the next generation of enterprise software.

Press Release.
As a basis for SAP's mySAP.com, the Microsoft Platform and Microsoft Office offer a combination of high-end scalability, reliability, and future growth for SAP customers at a low price to acquire and operate. We are dedicated to helping business users easily adapt to the rapidly changing world of new, improved technology and get the leading edge in performance and reliability with the best cost of ownership.
More than 46,000 SAP installations run on Microsoft Windows®—more than all other platforms combined. Almost two-thirds of all new SAP installations are deployed on Microsoft Windows. By aligning our flagship software efforts for the next decade, Microsoft and SAP are reaffirming our commitment to helping customers protect, integrate, and extend their investments across Microsoft and SAP solutions.
