SAP means Systemanalyse und Programmentwicklung. This is german for System analysis and program development.
The name was later changed into Systeme, Anwendungen und Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung: Systems, application and products in the data processing.
The company is specialized in large application supporting large corporations.

Its a great Database engine. Because of its flexibility and ease of configuration, it works well on a large scale, due to its cost; SAP works well ON a networking platform, not AS a networking platform.
