Overall Satisfaction with SAP HANA

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.
  • In-memory database
  • On-the-fly feature
  • Queries and aggregations--the read actions are very fast
  • It is the best business solution (especially ERP)
  • It is very expensive
  • HTML analytical editor needs to improve
  • High productivity
  • User friendly and easy to learn
  • High cost
SAP HANA database is attacking the established leaders in the database market: Oracle, Microsoft, IBM and Teradata. That is a pretty bold move and a lot of people might fear to bet on the newcomer. The fact that all of them are following SAP with in-memory database features themselves should give you comfort and verify that SAP HANA points in the right direct.
SAP teams gives the proper demonstration and training as required. Also resolution of ticket is on priority they never took too much time to solve the issue and gives timely support.

SAP HANA was built as an in-memory database from the start--a technological leap ahead of other databases. This is an advantage because the vast amount of memory is greater and more affordable than what is available elsewhere. For queries and aggregations the read actions are very fast, so when we need to perform very fast calculations or calculations on the fly, SAP HANA is the best fit.
