Migrating to SAP HANA system

SAP HANA is a combination of HANA Database, Data Modeling, HANA Administration and Data Provisioning in one single suite. Following are key features of SAP HANA −

• SAP HANA is a combination of software and hardware innovation to process a huge amount of real-time data.
•  Based on multi-core architecture in the distributed system environment.
•  Based on column type of data-storage in the database and hence facilitates data compression, and on the fly aggregation.

Storing Data in Columnar based table has following benefits −

• Data Compression

• Faster read and write access to tables as compared to conventional Row based storage

• Flexibility & parallel processing

• Perform Aggregations and Calculations at higher speed

• Used extensively in Memory Computing Engine (IMCE) to process and analyze the massive amount of real-time data.
• It reduces the cost of ownership, increases application performance, enables new applications to run on the real-time environment that were not possible before.
• SAP HANA support different data replications- SAP LT replication, Direct Extract Connection or Data Services and data load can be done in real time trigger based approach.
• SAP HANA can be used for BI reporting using different reporting tools like BusinessObjects, Tableau and also include MS Excel.
