SAP HANA Cloud vs. SAP Vora

I think if you have a large organization, it's probably the product and the marketplace to go to. We're a large management consulting firm operating in four to seven countries. And generally speaking, I think that's the size and the scope where it scales best. I can't speak to smaller companies, but I can't see smaller companies leveraging the benefits as much as a larger organization can.

I spent more than 1 year with SAP Vora, SAP Datahub and SAP Leonardo with ML, iOt. I believe this product has potential but it is not easy to adopt. SAP has to keep in mind how open-source big data technologies are able to deliver quick results. I know SAP is stabilizing and fighting hard against many open source technologies, but it still has a long way to go there.

• SAP HANA Cloud can help drive data analytics, data migration, and data management exceptionally well.
• It offers an integration service that lets you integrate data and processes with 3rd party app or any other cloud app.
• In-memory capability helps in faster data processing.

• Modelling with SAP HANA and Hadoop
• Realtime Analysis using Vora and HANA as a Streaming engine
• Time series Analysis on large chunks of datasets
• Machine learning capabilities on Hadoop tables and spark contexts

• Requires higher processing power, otherwise it won't fly. How ever computing costs are lower. Incase you are migrating to cloud please do not select the highest config available in that series . Upgrading it later against a reserved instance can cost you dearly with a series change
• Lack of clarity on licensing is one major challenge
• Unless S/4 with additional features are enabled mere migration HANA DB is not a rewarding journey. Power is in S/4

• Vora 2.0 in on premise scenarios could be improved, as adoption of the cloud is not an easy sell.
• Kubernetes and Docker integration need to be more seamless and quick to understand. If this is simplified, it will be easy to adopt
• Data hub orchestration and integrations could be simplified so that quick adoption within SAP BW, ECC, S4 HANa scenarios is possible.

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

One specific example of how the support for SAP HANA Cloud impacted us is in our efforts to troubleshoot and resolve technical issues. Whenever we encountered an issue or had a question, the support team was quick to respond and provided us with clear and actionable guidance. This helped us avoid downtime and keep our analytics operations running smoothly.

Professional GIS people are some of the most risk-averse there are, and it's difficult to get them to move to HANA in one step. Start with small projects building to 80% use of HANA spatial over time.

It enables preview and better cloud service than other cloud platforms. Easy document transfer and faster document transfer are the key points for the selection of the HANA cloud server. The preview of data before its execution is also one of the factors in the selection of the HANA server.

• Enhanced agility and innovation, improved decision-making, and reduced IT infrastructure costs are some positive impacts.
• The process of migrating data and applications to the cloud may require downtime and disrupt operations.
• It involves implementing additional security controls and addressing data residency requirements, which can have a negative impact.

• Negative impact would be Poc and RFI will need more time to adopt and decision making gets delayed
• Positive impact would be it's a great leap from SAP to adopt a Big data technologies and AI within cloud stream. But selling is going to take time.
