Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Used by a department for data modeling and fulfilling users' complex requirements. We're using HANA Studio Modeler to design calculation views and procedures. Good and fast data read and write service for large data sets. Development is extremely easy for the persons who don't even know how to code or who are novices in SQL language.

Pros and Cons

Fast data service, instant data preview option upon modeling
Security

Web IDE needs to improve
Eclipse environment needs more optimization on Windows systems
Better error handing design time

Alternatives Considered

Tableau Desktop, Teradata Database and Vertica

We prefer SAP HANA because it has real-time reporting and is development friendly.

Support Rating

Takes long time to resolve issues in HANA 2.0, we have to wait for SPS releases. There is no workaround in betwwen the release communicated by SAP Help service.
