Benefits of Running SAP HANA with SAP NetWeaver BW

Classical Approach

(SAP BW on RDBMS)

In-Memory Approach

(SAP BW on HANA)

Reporting

Performance

Requires BWA to deal with performance

acceleration of queries

Fast Reporting Access on All SAP

BW data without BWA

Real-Time Data

Access

Traditional latency issues with getting

timely information

Leverage Real-Time Replication to

get up to the minute insight

Simulate More and

Plan Faster!

Planning requires reading & writing data

to/from a database (calculations in ABAP)

Planning performs application

intensive calculations in-memory!

Superior Loading

Performance Loading and consolidation occurs in ABAP

Loading Performance pushed into

HANA natively!

Simplified

Maintenance

Requires DB management of

database(indexes, statistics, DBA

operations) as well as management of BWA

to get good performance

No indexes, aggregates, statistics,

or DBA maintenance required!

Modeling

Flexibility

Cannot add/remove dimensions without re-

modeling toolkit (very costly operation)

Flexibly remodel cubes quickly and

reduce materialized layers!

Simplified Administration and Streamlined Landscape Reduced Administration and Lower TCO

Simplified Infrastructure & Activities

• Eliminate the need for Indexes and aggregates

• Simplified administration via one set of admin tools

• Reduce IT overhead associated with partitioning DSO or

InfoCubes for performance reasons & fine tuning BW system

Reduction in Layers

• Compression due to columnar technology & elimination

redundant data shrinks database size dramatically

• Reorganize BW layer with reduced complexity and

redundant data persistence in different aggregation level

• Database and SAP BWA merging in one instance for lower

TCO and reduced admin tasks


Unlock The Power of Your Data Across The Enterprise Simplified IT Workload with Easy Access to Multiple Data Types

Simplified Access to All Data

• Transparent use of operational data from SAP HANA

Run HANA operational data mart and BW on same

HANA landscape

Preserve Your BW Investment without Disruption Migration without Disruption to your BW Application

Migration without Re-implementation

• Database migration only – No need to re-implement your SAP BW system

• All existing BW Queries, Reports, Transformation logic, and data models continue to work as

before

• No reload of data required or additional remodeling

• No loss of existing BW functionality (Queries, Reports, Security, Administration etc..)

• Migration of HANA optimized objects via mass conversion
