Introduction

Data now resides in main-memory (RAM) and no longer on a hard disk.

It is a combination of hardware and software made to process massive real time data using In-Memory computing.

SAP HANA, short for “High-Performance Analytic Appliance” is an in-memory, column-oriented, relational database management system developed by SAP.

Introduction It combines row-based, column-based database technology. It’s best suited for performing real-time analytics on massive

data, and developing & deploying real-time applications.

IN MEMORY An in-memory database means all the

data is stored in the memory (RAM). No time wasted in loading the data from hard-disk to RAM or storing the data in hard-disk.

Everything is stored inside memory for all the time, which gives quick access ability to the CPUs while processing data.

The speed advantages offered by this RAM storage system are further accelerated by the use of multi-core CPUs, and multiple CPUs per board, and multiple boards per server appliance.

Hardware and Software Combination

e

Performing real-time analytics on massive data

• Operating System Supported By SAP HANA: Earlier SUSE Linux Enterprise Server x86-64 (SLES) 11 SP1 was the only Operating system supported by SAP HANA.

• From SPS08, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is also supported. SAP HANA is developed in C++ language.

• SAP HANA is equipped with Multiengine Query Processing Environment which supports relational as well as graphical and text data within the same system.

Why SAP HANA is FAST?

• In-memory computing is safe: The SAP HANA database holds the bulk of its data in memory for maximum performance, but still uses persistent storage to provide a fallback in case of failure

• After a power failure, the database can be restarted like any disk-based database and returns to its last consistent state by replaying the log since the last save point.

All data is in RAM. What happens when power goes down?• SAP HANA is an in-memory database which means all the data

resides in RAM. But there is also a disc memory just for backup purpose.

Need for SAP HANAIT Challenges:• “Big Data” (volume) growing

and challenge for real-time access to Operational Enterprise Systems

• Costly for IT to purchase and maintain hardware to handle increasing data volumes

• IT not the hero – dissatisfied business users

• Processing and analysis results delayed

• Data not in real time

Challenges for Business:

• Inadequate access to real-time operational information

• Need to react faster to events impacting business

• Need to quickly uncover trends and patterns by functional users – empower users/organizations

• Need to improve business processes

Why Companies Choose SAP HANA?• Speed – Manage massive

volumes at high speed• Agility – Enable real-time

interactions across Value Chain

• Any Data – Gain insights from structured and unstructured data

• Insight – Unlock new insights with predictive complex analysis

• Applications – Run next-generation applications

• Cloud – Step up to next

advanced platform• Innovation – Deploy ultimate

platform for business innovation

• Simplicity – Manage fewer layers and landscapes for lower costs

• Value – Innovate without disruption and add value to legacy investments

• Choice – Work with preferred partner at every level

SAP HANA Hardware Partners• SAP HANA is a combination of hardware and software made

to process massive real time data using In-Memory computing. To leverage the full power of the SAP HANA platform, you need the right hardware infrastructure.

• The SAP HANA can only be installed and configured by certified hardware partners.

SAP HANA Landscape• With the help of technology

like SLT replication, data can be moved to HANA in real time.

• It is also possible to copy data from SAP BW or other database into SAP HANA.

• In HANA, we can use modeling tool called HANA Studio to build the logic and structures and use tools.

Areas of Data Usage

Use Cases for using SAP HANA• Sales Reporting (CRM):– Quickly identify top customers and products by

channel – with real-time sales reporting. Improve order fulfillment rates and accelerate

– Key sales processes at the same time, with instant analysis of credit memo and billing list

• Financial Reporting (FICO)– Obtain immediate insights across your business –

into revenue, accounts payable and receivable, open, and overdue items

– Top general ledger transaction and days sales outstanding (DSO). Make the right financial decisions, armed with real-time information

• Shipping Reporting (LE-SHP)–Rely on real-time shipping reporting for

complete stock overview analysis. –Assess and optimize stock levels – with accurate

information at one’s fingertips

• Master Data Reporting (Data Governance/MDM)–Obtain real-time reporting on main master data,

including customer, vendor, and materials lists for improved productivity and accuracy

Use Cases for using SAP HANA

• Purchasing Reporting (P2P/SRM)— Gain timely insights into purchase orders, vendors, and the

movement of goods – with real-time purchasing reporting— Make better purchasing decisions based on a complete

analysis of order history

Key Takeaways about SAP HANA• Empowers the Organization– Reduced reliance on IT resources– Real-time visibility to complete data for

transaction and analytics processing– Enable a 360 degree view of your business

• Real-Time Analytics for Operational Data– Go from “what happened yesterday” to real time– Close to zero latency– Ability to leverage and analyze large volumes of

data• Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)– Non-disruptive to existing Enterprise Data

Warehousing (EDW) Strategy– Low TCO by leveraging the latest technology and

delivery as pre-configured appliance

The Prerequisite to learn SAP HANA • Database Concepts and basic knowledge of SQL are

desirable.• ABAP may help in understanding the Business logic

implementation. It is an advantage, but not mandatory. • Knowing BW helps you in understanding Modeling concepts. • BW knowledge is a must if you are going to work on BW on

HANA. • BO or Business Objects is the Front end Reporting tool. If

you have knowledge of BO then reporting on HANA would be a piece of cake for you.
