This is a comprehensive platform that is used throughout the collection. The purpose of using the SAP HANA platform is to integrate information and output detailed reports on the performance of different departments. It is widely used in sales, marketing, human resources, and management departments. As IT Manager and Organizational Consultant, I oversee performance monitoring and consulting. For me, SAP products and introducing them to large companies is like honesty in professional business. I am not a sales representative or marketer of this company, but I like good and creative platforms and companies that have a direct impact on sales. Everything we need is summarized in one platform. We connect all the database information from different sources into this platform and everything is processed quickly and easily in intelligence. Saving time, high precision, accurate processes without human error, and reducing costs are the advantages of SAP HANA for our business.

The SAP HANA standard edition provides services related to database, application and integration, series data, dynamic tiering, and more additional features. It address the systematic computational analysis of data or statistics through advanced analytics (streaming analytics option, spatial/graph option, search/text option, predictive option).

SAP HANA is one of the best and powerful tools for enterprise data management. We used it for ETL (extract, transform, load) and calculations. We were satisfied with the speed of each of those activities. The in-memory capabilities of SAP Hana has increased the performance of the time taken reports. We had moved away from a lot of the third-party databases and applications and it's allowed the consolidation of multiple systems.

Our organization made a migration from SAP B1 to SAP Hana based on our user feedback that data retrieval time is not smooth and is consuming a lot of time which indirectly was reducing their efficiency. Hence to make a positive impact on the employee feed back we decided to migrate to SAP HANA being aware of the additional cost and IT infrastructure in mind .We were also aware that the current trend is focusing on cloud hence we were aware at one point we had to migrate to HANA. Our Enterprise ERP was utilizing an Oracle db since the onset of our organization ,i.e 20 plus years. Hence a simple query would be searching more than 10 mil records at any point in time which was responsible for the slow operating speed of SAP B1 .Thus keeping in mind the overall data retrieval speed in mind we decided to go ahead HANA.

SAP HANA is used by the consulting team, in cases where the client already has the SAP HANA and we need to deliver visions and database integration for different areas of the company, like marketing, sales and finance team.

SAP HANA is used across the whole organization. CRM, ECC, and BW systems are used to manage and assist with the supply chain, the daily warehouse and manufacturing operations and to manage customers and provide insights about the sales from our advisors, contact center, and retail points. We also use it to analyze data in order to forecast sales and plan budgets and supplies.

SAP HANA is used in my organization to perform ETL operation and to generate results for analytical activity. We get data from big Data servers we process it, and SAP HANA generates reports. It works on real-time data on the fly--the beauty of on-the-fly processing is that it solves our real-time data analytics activity issue.

SAP HANA is an in-memory database. Therefore, its data retrieval is very fast and efficient. SAP HANA is being used in my organization as well as with our business partner to develop, maintain, enhance and support SAP HANA views. Primarily, we are handling SAP HANA calculation views. Generally there comes the problem of enhancements in various SAP HANA views, be it adding a new column or some logic that needs to be embedded in views. As SAP HANA is a very powerful product being provided by SAP, it is being used within the whole of the company to support various projects of our business partners.

We have used different SAP HANA deployments in our testing environment:

Native SAP HANA:
In this deployment, we have developed a SQL Data Warehouse solution in SAP HANA, showing the benefit of using SAP HANA as a SQL Data Warehouse solution, if a department has not many SAP source systems as well as previous SQL skills from another vendor.

SAP BW/4HANA resp. SAP BW on HANA:
In this deployment, we have developed our Data Warehouse solution in our BW system, showing the benefit of using SAP HANA as a database for BW systems, if a department has mainly SAP source systems as well as SAP knowledge.

My company purchased SAP HANA to help bring our entire International organization under one roof, so to speak. It is an on going process that has taken two plus years and will continue to grow as we add more divisions. Due to the Pandemic we have not been adding any divisions but it is still in the works. Meanwhile, we use it every day.

As a consultant, I implement business scenarios in SAP HANA. At my current project, we implement solutions based on BWonHANA and use SAP HANA developments for more complex use cases, e.g. where we need to join various sources (and/or) texts together or need to do some sort of pre-selection/ranking based on certain measures. For this we use calculation views. We currently do not use HANA for XS applications.

We were working on a supply chain project for a customer where we have build applications on top of the data that is dependent on SAP, as well as a third-party application. 3rd party application data varies quite frequently, which has a huge set of master data and can be accessed via files. We brought this data to SAP HANA on a cloud platform, which gave us access to unify data coming from ECC and 3rd party. It also provided the capability to server better user experience for accessing this data via Fiori applications.
