LESSON 1: OVERVIEW
SAP In-Memory Appliance (SAP HANA)

SAP HANA is a hardware and software combination that integrates a number of SAP components including the SAP In-memory database, Sybase Replication technology and SAP LT (Landscape Transformation) Replicator. The SAP in-memory database is a hybrid in-memory database that combines row-based, column-based, and object-based database technology. It is optimized to exploit parallel processing capabilities of modern multi core/CPU architectures. With this architecture, SAP applications can benefit from current hardware technologies. SAP HANA contains the following components and tools: SAP In-Memory Computing Engine (IMCE) Server 1.0 o IMCE ODBO 1.0 (OLE DB for OLAP)

SAP IMCE Clients 1.0 The IMCE clients are the interfaces by which the IMCE can communicate with other components. The following subcomponents are included: o IMCE ODBC 1.0 (Open Database Connectivity) o IMCE JDBC 1.0
(Java Database Connectivity)

o IMCE SQLDBC 1.0 (SQL Database Connectivity) SAP IMCE Studio1.0 (includes SAP HANA Modeler) Sybase Replication Agent SAP Host Agent 7.20

Sybase Replication Server 15 + Sybase Enterprise Connect Data Access (ECDA) SAP HANA Load Controller 1.0 (includes R3Load, RepServer De-cluster Add-On) SAP HANA software is available in 3 different editions: 1.

LESSON 4. SAP HANA SYSTEM LANDSCAPING


*** Implementing SAP HANA can be performed by using the following 3 options ***
Choice 1 (For customers with SAP ERP 4.6c or SAP ECC 6.0 on a NW release below NW ABAP 7.02)

For any customers on SAP ERP 4.6c, utilizing SLT will require setting up an intermediary system with at least NW ABAP 7.02 load controller for replication into HANA For example, a SOLMAN system could be used for the SLT Add-on Supports Non-Unicode or MDMP systems for SAP ERP as long as SLT is installed on a NW 7.02 Unicode system

Choice 2 (For customers with SAP ECC 6.0+, running on at least NW ABAP 7.02)

For any customers on SAP ECC 6.0+ running on NW ABAP 7.02 (must be fully Unicode), utilizing SLT can be done directly for replication into HANA

LESSON 6. DATA PROVISIONING


SAP HANA data provisioning can be performed using the following ways:1. SAP Business Objects- Data Services 2. SAP LT Replication Server

6.1 VIA DATA SERVICES


We know,

SAP BO Data Services can connect HANA to either/any SAP or Non-SAP systems.

Connectivity options already available in SAP BO Data Services 3.x


ABAP Dataflow o Generates and executes an ABAP program on the SAP Application Server that reads data from an SAP table and outputs that data to a staging file. This file must be accessible to Data Services, which requires the configuration of an access/transfer mechanism (shared directory/FTP) o For all datasets Remote Function Call (RFC) Read Table o An RFC is made to read the contents of an SAP table o For very small datasets only (<1000 records) RFC/BAPI function calls o For lookups, not for mass data transfer o For very small datasets only IDOCs

Page | 16

SAP HIGH PERFORMANCE ANALYTICAL APPLIANCE (SAP HANA 1.0)

January 2012

Whats new in SAP BO Data Services 4.0

Business Content Extractors (Data Sources) o Originally designed for SAP BW to consume SAP Business Suite data Covers transactional (TRAN) and master data (ATTR, TEXT) extractors Table, view or function module based Function Module based extractors have logic/transformations to produce logical records that can be used for reporting purposes Some extractors have delta recognition So, with the new SAP BO DS 4.0 we now can utilize Business Content Extractors to acquire data into HANA. There are two ways:1. Without the Operational Data Provisioning(ODP) Data Replication API Works with all SAP ERP versions Only works with TRAN (transactional data) and ATTR (master data attributes) TEXT (master data text) and HIER (master data hierarchies) arent supported Must be used in an ABAP Dataflow o An ABAP Dataflow generates and executes an ABAP program on the SAP Application Server that reads data from any SAP table and outputs that data to a file. This file is then consumed by Data Services, which requires the configuration of an access/transfer mechanism (shared directory/FTP) No delta recognition FULL LOAD only

Page | 17

SAP HIGH PERFORMANCE ANALYTICAL APPLIANCE (SAP HANA 1.0)

January 2012

2. With the Operational Data Provisioning (ODP) Data Replication API Can be used directly in a Dataflow, no ABAP Dataflow required o Data from ODP enabled extractors is streamed directly to Data Services Delta recognition for those Business Content Extractors that support it HIER (master data hierarchies) extractors arent supported Works with SAP ERP Central Component (ECC) 6.0. Additional SAP Notes reqd. o https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1521883 Access to a limited number of officially released extractors o https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1558737 o All released extractors are fully supported by SAP Hence, from practical point of view for HANA System Integrators, its advisable to use With OPD method in favorable scenarios. With the Operational Data Provisioning (ODP) Contd Lets see the Customer Benefits as follows.

Non-SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW) customers Get access to the Business Suite Extractors without having to go through SAP NetWeaver BW There is no need for an ABAP Dataflow and therefore no ABAP program, no staging file, and no configuration to access the staging file SAP NetWeaver BW customers Can easily apply transformations when loading SAP NetWeaver BW Can now use one single tool to define all extraction, validation, and cleansing rules to load all data (SAP and non-SAP) into SAP NetWeaver BW

***Important Note***
The ODP Data Replication API is delivered via the SAP NetWeaver platform on which the SAP ECC system runs. Please note that you cant just upgrade the SAP NetWeaver platform, you MUST upgrade the SAP ECC instance to a Support Pack (SP) level that corresponds to the required SAP NetWeaver SP level.

At present Approx. 200 extractors has been released for Data Services by the SAP. Please check https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1558737 Also, please advice Data services team to check ROOSATTR table to check Extractors list.

Step 6: Create Data Foundation

We know, Data Foundations can be single or multi-source , maps tables and views the universe, defines joins, reporting contexts.

Next,

Select Single Source if HANA is the unique data source for the reporting needs Select Multisource-Enabled if data from HANA must be combined with other sources

Then, Once Data Foundation is built, we can start HANA reporting from the relational universe.

Hence, we can have a Semantic Layer (Universe) for HANA reporting requirements.
