HANA has incredible query processing speeds. When compared with Sybase ASE for large dataset queries, we saw 10,000 times performance improvement. And for the individual point queries, we found that it was on par with Sybase ASE and that is because all of the response time is the round trip latency from the client initiating the query to the database and back. But for those large set processing requests that take a long time on Sybase, they ran 10,000 times faster on HANA. HANA is expensive so it should be used where in-memory transaction speeds are required and there are large volumes of data to be processed.

Pros

One of the oldest distributors of enterprise standard Hadoop.
Distribution is based on open source Hadoop even though customizations are done on top of that.
Faster updates and bug fixes to the products as they have Apache committers.
Central configuration and control of your Hadoop platform (but still needs improvements).

HANA has allowed us to convert our BW reports and provide users with real time report data. Prior to moving to HANA, the reporting was based on prior day activities.
Queries involving large amount of financial data are able to be run much quicker with HANA than prior to implementation.

Whenever an error is made in an order confirmation, the reversal process is extremely difficult and the user has to go through several steps to correct it.
There is no specific pathway for certain tasks which can be quite misleading for new users.
SAP support from online sources is very limited. As a result of that, solving a problem can be challenging if the skilled person is not available.

Cloudera is expanding with varied range of products and it looks to me as a challenging company and very competitive in the Big Data market. I would recommend to using the latest stable version as new features are added with each version and different bugs are fixed. As Big data is a constantly evolving so trying new Cloudera products helps businesses to stay competitive in the market domain as every big organization is now trying to move to Big Data.

At this moment we are not focusing on SAP, however would love to in the future. This is primarily because of our limited ability to generate more revenue to fund for SAP partnerships and products. Our initial tryst with SAP Partneredge open ecosystem didn't go as planned and we have shelved that for now. Hope we can revive in the future

SAP HANA 8.2

Based on 216 answers

SAP HANA is one of the best databases in the current century and it’s SAP’s own database. The performance & handling of complex calculations are far more better than any other database. Performance tuning & memory monitoring is easily done without impacting any codes. Virtual data models have been used and the basic models are not affected.

I have not evaluated any similar products, and in fact, don't know of any direct competitor. Amazon's Redshift has a similar spirit.

We changed PECTRA for SAP, since we were having many problems with the loss of information in the database and unexpected catalog changes. In addition to that, it was very cumbersome to perform data analysis. We had many problems with a lack of materials or that the necessary did not enter because of it.

Since implementing HANA we have been able to save several million dollars a year in operating room supplies ($9 million last fiscal year).
It has allowed us to improve our processes to save $1 million dollars in our Laboratory Services
