Market Expectations

Gartner 1 “Emerging data sources, trends and technologies challenge the

effectiveness of data warehouses in supporting analysis and decision making.”

IDC 2: “ The data warehousing market based on relational databases will

continue to be disrupted by several nonrelational and/or nonschematic
information management software categories. Data warehouses will not
disappear as they have a key place in an organization's data architecture.”

SAP HANA DW – Customer Example

Overview
 SAP HANA, SAP PowerDesigner, and a number of other SAP
as well as non-SAP tools that are integrated in the solution.
 “Data vault” modeling as best fit, as it provides the full data
traceability and historization a financial institution needs

Benefits & Goals:

 Consolidation of several data warehouses into one
 Reduction of interfaces  a single source of truth
 Traceability of all data and processing
 High performance reports and simplified slicing and dicing
 Free choice of tools and data schema provided optimal fit for
the customer’s scenario

SAP BW powered by
SAP HANA
SAP BW – Customer Example

Business Value
 Consolidated, performant analytics out of one hand has
greatly improved the user experience.
 Financial management is tighter and timelier with access
to key reports in seconds.
 Landscape consolidation has greatly simplified the IT
landscape and improves IT’s support for the business.

Technical Impact
 Highly simplified data model
 Reports over a billion rows available in seconds rather
than minutes
 Data load times reduced by over 60%
 Largely avoided building of InfoCubes by using data
store object (DSO) layers and Composite Providers

SAP HANA DW – Mixed Scenario Customer Example

The benefits of the mixed approach are in this case:

• Efficient handling of data volumes for cost optimization
• Driving virtualization without sacrificing performance
• Advanced DataStore Objects and Open ODS Views relieve
need to create InfoObjects and speed up any prototyping
activity
• Frequently used data sets can be persisted for performance
and reusability purposes
• Excellent query and data load performance
• SAP HANA automatic view generation reduces time to develop
with gain of flexibility
• Benefits from SAP BW’s excellent delta handling for data loads

Summary
SAP HANA DW – Summary

SAP HANA DW – a flexible and modern

data warehouse framework
• SQL centric approach as a scenario for data
warehousing with tooling for implementation
• SAP BW as the guided and integrated data
warehouse
• Mixed Scenarios as best reference
• Independent from starting point HANA DW
components can be added and used in a mixed
architecture at a later point in time
