Overall Satisfaction with SAP HANA

We are currently using HANA for real-time data warehouse reporting. Our present-day focus area is for production management with a vision to migrate [our] enterprise data warehouse to HANA. HANA is able to solve report availability latency and gave a huge boost on the performance. SAP HANA addressed the real-time reporting issues we were facing with some critical reports. HANA also helped unify all the legacy reporting applications into one platform serving as a corporate reporting tool.
  • Real-time reporting
  • Faster access
  • Ability to interface with other applications
  • Optimized profitability
  • Wide Interface Options
  • License cost needs to be reduced
  • GUI/Hana Studio is too complex
  • SLT is still in developing stage
  • It helps to get an answer to so many reporting and processing questions which were not feasible before because of limited processing capabilities.
- Large Scale enterprise wide reporting is possible
- Security is very tight
- Real time data processing
- Columnar storage / faster results
- SQL compatibility - skillset not an issue in most of the cases
- Parallel Processing

HANA is very well suited:
1. Enterprise wide reporting for mid to very large size companies
2. Where we need real-time reporting
3. It has analytic engines also which make it very unique in market for analytic solutions
4. Integration with R//Python helps for data science projects too
5. Real-time data processing like Airlines/Soccer Matches
