SAP NetWeaver BW 7.3, SP 8 - Positioning
SAP NetWeaver BW Support Package 8 mainly
serves the aspect to include enhancements based on
customer feedback during RU BW 7.3 on HANA.
In this context additional integration scenarios
between BW on HANA and HANA Data Mart
scenarios for further flexibility will be provided as well
as the “Not-active” data concept for optimized RAM
sizing and lower TCO.

“Non Active” Data Concept *
Providing lower TCO by optimized RAM sizing
Tables/partitions in SAP HANA can be marked as
“non active”
 Such tables/partitions are …
Data Stores (RAM)
 loaded into RAM only when accessed
 loaded into RAM in case of read access (column-wise)
and processed as usual (same speed and functionality)
 loaded to RAM for merge process (if new data was
written and delta reaches limit)
 displaced from RAM with highest priority in case of RAM
shortage (but only then) or when actively a cleanup is
triggered
Persistence
Layer
 BW automatically marks all PSA tables and all write-optimized
DSO tables as “non-active”, no extra maintenance or tuning is
necessary
* Requires HANA SPS 5

Partitioning of Write-Optimized DSOs
Reduces data latency for Write-Optimized DSOs
Better performance of write-optimized
DataStore Objects
Main Indexes
 Write-optimized DSO are now partitioned by request-ID
 Partitioning improves merging performance
significantly, especially in case the delta Index is
merged for a large Write-Optimized DSO.
 With partitioning only the relevant (last) partition (with
changed/new records) is merged.

 In addition performance for read and delete is
improved, because with partition pruning only a subset
of the data is accessed.

Easy validation of dataflow migration
Simulate the dataflow before migration:

Support of BW3.x  BW7.x DataFlow migration is
further enhanced

Results of 3.x and 7.x dataflow are simulated based on
the source data of the dataflow

Data is compared to see if dataflow after migration
calculates the same data as before migration

Differences can be analyzed using a new UI
