Overall Satisfaction with SAP HANA
In my organisation, we have installed SAP HANA for training purposes. The organisation has also bought licenses of software and is providing continuous support to their clients in terms of services. Implementing SAP Hana for customers not only increases the speed and efficiency of data retrieval but also is a complete transformation of architecture design from the backend which is much better than older backed relational databases.
- Faster retrieval of data from in memory database as all data resides in main memory RAM
- Data compression techniques in SAP hana are better than older databases
- OLAP and OLTP systems can be combined in one system to leverage the feature of both systems together
- SAP HANA licenses are costly as of now. To attract more customers it should lower the license cost.
- Skilled professionals for SAP HANA are much needed so proper training and innovation should be taken into account by the professionals.
- Get maximum involvement in integration with other applications and databases like big data Hadoop through smart data access.
- SAP hana has got some initial costs only once. Once it is implemented the entire business objectives and architecture will be changed and it will be so helpful for customers in terms of data.
- Negative impact [to] only those who have some investments in the beginning.
- SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform, SAP BusinessObjects Cloud and SAP Crystal Reports
SAP hana is best utilised for data management at the backend. Therefore using SAP HANA at the backend and utilising SAP BO's reporting tools at the front end for visualising the data in a better presentable form is an example.
