If you have source system in SAP then HANA is a best solution for further Business Logic Implementation. For non-SAP source system like Teradata we need any third-party toll to replicate the data into HANA for further analysis. In cases of reporting, HANA will be best as it has the columnar storage features.

It is appropriate to work. For example, IRCTC is using HANA. It's not easily available for all users because of legacy systems on one want to switch to HANA. Everyone's first question is: why it is required to move to HANA? Also, it is very costly. Better solutions are available in the market at a lower price than HANA.

SAP HANA is well suited for real-time analytics, faster access to data, etc. in sales industries such as retail, groceries. Also it very suitable to large data with a lot of real-time analytics, etc. it is not suitable in manufacturing industries, etc. where real-time data analytics are not required or in small businesses where day-to-day transactions are fewer.

SAP HANA does a lot better at managing humongous data volumes, building queries on top, connectivity with host of other services, workload class concept, granular access control, etc. With the ability to connect to Azure/AWS it expands the options to bring enterprise data to a whole different usage level. HANA has increased the ways/options in which data was being accessed.

HANA provides advanced functionalities like data masking which helps in masking sensitive data and stores data efficiently. High probability in restoring data in case of any loss, auditing data is very efficient.

So it is useful for high-risk businesses like semiconductors, data-sharing businesses.

HANA Optimization

I would recommend it when there are simple calculation logics but on large amounts of data. It may not be the best tool when the logics are very complex and the volume of data is very large. The implementation may seem simple but does not give the results in the expected time. Many tuning activities are required in these cases to improve the time.

  • SAP HANA is one of the most robust product databases available
  • Well suited for a large amount of data processing and reporting across the environment such as BW, BI, Tableau and Lumira.
  • Charm++ is the best guided technique to manage transports and weIDE for development.
  • Managing HANA cockpit applications command center is the most useful feature in the newer version.

Hana is well suited for scenarios such as BI for manager data or enriching the data, and with objects as a calculation view. The developer can develop flow without ABAP or transformation (TRFN) but only use "virtual" data on the fly mode to avoid duplicated data.

HANA is useful for big data applications, and as a back-end for web browser based applications. It is a powerful and flexible solution that offers many options for customization and options for expert users, while also having simple user interface options for average business users. But if a use-case is rather simple then HANA may be excessive and a simpler database can be used.

We really use it when we want the leverage our data and improve the performance of processes that would take ages in an OracleDB. We extract data from the DB very fast and we are able to present this information to the user. Also some background processes that use to take ages, are now completed within minutes.

SAP HANA: Worth It

Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review

It is well suited for big reporting where we see a lot of huge improvements in terms of response time. It is less appropriate for very small systems or PI-like systems, therefore the cost is not worth it.
