Let's explore basic understanding regarding HANA
SAP HANA is the technology that allows you to
perform massive analyses of real-time data in-memory. The in-memory database
was created as a response to the business need to immediately access real data
in real time. Retrieving information is a challenge, especially when a massive
amount of data is handled. In-memory data reads around 15 times faster than a
traditional database stored in the hard drive. Therefore, in-memory databases
can read records in about 5 nanoseconds, as opposed to traditional databases,
which read disk records in 5 milliseconds. Your applications, analytics, and
programs will run faster in an in-memory environment such as SAP HANA. Using
SAP HANA will be able to unlock new customer insights rapidly, because it
provides you with data mining and predictive analytics and storage solutions,
in addition to real-time operation.
SAP HANA is projected to be the platform for future
SAP development, including analytics and applications. It currently provides
you with an enhanced solution for data storing and analytics. Therefore, it’s
important to understand the basic concepts as well as the overall technology.
SAP Business Suite enables companies to run their
business closer to real-time by bringing together online transactional
processing and online analytical processing into a single in-memory platform.
HANA analytics is to accelerate specific
transactions or reports within the SAP Business Suite, as a secondary database
side-by-side with existing DB. Specific transactions/tables are replicated to
HANA upon posting of transaction.
The ERP Sales reports/transactions to be
accelerated are then configured to read from HANA DB instead of traditional DB
