Think about…
1
…The potential…Get familiar with the benefits you would get when porting
your Suite to Suite on HANA – increase transaction/batch speed, boost
operational reporting (HANA LIVE), ease the UI (improved selection screens)
2
…Quick wins…Discover low hanging fruits and realize quick wins for your
business.
3
…New innovations…Think about new/optimized processes that can
leverage the HANA foundation.

Prerequisites
Dual-Stack / Unicode
Plan
Build
Run
Dual-Stack Systems
„[…] as of SAP Business Suite 7i2011, it will no longer be possible to upgrade an SAP dual-stack
system to a higher release […].“ (note 1655335)
 Suite on HANA is based on NetWeaver 7.40, not supporting dual-stack installations
 Dual-stack systems have to be split before a SAP HANA migration
– A dual-stack split tool is included in the SL toolset, available on SAP Service Marketplace
 Java stack stays on current database, since Java is not yet supported to run on SAP HANA
Unicode
 SAP HANA runs natively on Unicode only
 Unicode conversion can technically be done during the database migration, but preparatory steps are required

System considerations – what changes and what doesn’t?
Hardware Impact - Migration of database server only + benefits
Frontends
No Change
Application Servers
AnyOS
 No change of
frontends
 Re-use of available
application servers
 Sizing of current
application servers
remains valid
Change
AnyDB/
AnyOS
SAP HANA migration
SAP HANA/
SUSE Linux
(SLES)
 Migration of database
to SAP HANA appliance
required
 Co-deployment of
application servers
(e.g. central instances)
on database hardware
not possible with SAP
HANA
No Functional Changes:
IMG, Customization, Modifications, Connectivity, Security, Transports, Monitoring
(DBACockpit & SolMa) stay all the same
Application and Reporting Benefits:
No dialog process in batch, acceleration/elimination of batch, Run operational reports in
real-time inside Suite

Scaling SAP HANA
Plan
Build
Run
Scale-up (scale vertically)
– Increase the size of the hardware (main memory, number of CPUs)
Challenge:
 availability of suitable hardware
Scale-out (scale horizontally)
– Several nodes (servers) are switched together for one database
– Data are distributed over the main memories of these different nodes
Challenge:
 Cross-node communication is expensive
– Avoid cross-node joins / views
 Table distribution has to be customer / usage pattern specific
 Dynamic re-distribution must be allowed

Migration Options
Option 1:
New installation
Option 2:
In-place migration
 Clean installation, take chance  Avoids changes to the overall
to tidy up
landscape – keep SID, hostname, application server,
 Not suited for replacement of
connectivity
current production system
 Data migration may be required  Downtimes during upgrade and
migration

Option 3:
Copy, upgrade + migrate
 Ideal setup for PoCs and pilots:
compare before & after, keep fallback
 Short downtime of production system
 BW-only: good option to run BW
powered by SAP HANA parallel to
original BW system productively

How it works?
 Develop ABAP in ABAP workbench;
develop HANA in HANA Studio
 Export HANA developments (views, stored
procedures) into transport container (TLOGO object)
 Assign transport container to a transport request in
ABAP Transport Organizer
 Use standard Change and Transport System (CTS) to
transport and deploy changes
Result
 Use well-proven technology for
transport of changes
 Utilize full change control of SAP
