Selecting the Correct SAP HANA System —
Sizing
• Available sizing tools from SAP
SAP Notes
SAP Note 1514966 (Non-BW data sources)
SAP Note 1637145 (BW data sources)
Notes include sizing papers and scripts to gather data from
source databases Quick Sizing tool (http://service.sap.com/quicksizing *)
Sizes a broad range of scenarios, including standalone, SAP
NetWeaver ®
BW powered by SAP HANA, and a variety ofapplications
Accepts data input from sizing note (above)
* Requires login credentials to the SAP Service Marketplace

Limits to SAP HANA Scalabil ity
• Current maximum size is 8TB RAM (16 SAP HANA nodes)
Equates to 28TB source system, assuming 3.5:1 effective
compression ratio
Certification restrict ion only
Scale out architectures are designed to increase in modular
fashion
4-nodebase
system
Add racks as needed
• Adds SAP HANA nodes (up to 4 per rack)
• Adds storage nodes (2 per rack)
• Adds disk array (local storage for storage nodes)
• Adds 10 GbE network switches and SAN
switches
40 Gbpsbetween
racks
Larger configurations will becertified based on market demand

6/43
5
Scalability — Other Factors to Consider
• Enterprise applications need more than simple scalability
Functionality
New RDS
New applications (e.g., SAP NetWeaver ® BW, SAP ERP)
New interfaces (e.g., Direct Extractor Connection – DXC)
Improved backup and recovery
Add incremental backup
Add integration with third-party tools
Backup installation and configuration files (bare-metalrecovery)
Disaster recovery
Certification complete – customer implementations underway
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
7/43
6
Scalability and Data Compression (Current
State)
• Data compression benefits
Reduces memory and disk requirements
Increases data read (query) performance
• Current limit to compression
Largely a function of converting from row-based to columnar
data store Effective compression l imited by database compression that is
already in effect
Highly dependent upon type of data Small number of unique values = high compression
Large number of unique values = low compression
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
8/43
7
Scalability and Compression (Future State)
DataCopies
Current State
Data copied between systems
• Significant amount of duplicate data
• Overhead on systems/networks to copy
data
Future StateSystems share SAP HANA database
• No duplicate data
• No overhead to copy data between
systems

Integration Options — Overview
• Choice of back-end and front-end systems can dictate
requirements for integration components (e.g., SLT) and vice
versa
SAP ERP, SAP
CRM, etc.
SAP HANA
Non-SAPSystem(s) SAP Data Services 4.0
BW (app server)
SLT
SAP BusinessObjects BIApplications 4.0
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
10/43

Possible Additional Systems
• SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) server
Used to copy data into SAP HANA
Alternate to SRS
Preferred for replication scenarios
• SAP Data Services 4.0
Used to copy data into SAP HANA
Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) scenarios
• Other SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 servers
Used to present data to end users
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
11/43

SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) Server
• Most commonly used for SAP Business Suite applications (SAP
ERP and SAP CRM)
Supported on Basis release 4.6C and higher
Requires installation of DMIS 2010 1
Installation instructions included in SAP Note 1468391
• Support expanded to include databases for non-SAP systems Must be compliant with DB/OS restrictions for SAP
NetWeaver 7.02

Requires login credentials to the SAP Service Marketplace
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
12/43
11
SLT Installation Options
• SLT can be installed on the source system in some cases
Advantage: Simpler landscape (no additional server needed)
Disadvantages
Places additional workload on the source system
Places additional restrictions on the source system
• Recommendation: Install SLT on separate system
Places fewest restrictions on source system
Same SLT system can be used for non-SAP systems
8/16/2019 3 Factors That Impact HANA Cost
13/43
12
SLT Installation Requirements

SAP Data Services
• Most flexible method to copy data into SAP HANA
SAP applications (e.g., SAP NetWeaver BW)
Non-SAP applications
Programming language APIs (e.g., C++)
Files (e.g., Excel spreadsheet)
• Provides options for complex integration scenarios

Direct Extractor Connection (DXC)• New ETL tool introduced by SAP
Limited transformation capabilities
• Uses Business Content DataSource Extractors (already used forSAP NetWeaver BW) to copy data into SAP HANA
• Does not require additional server
Default configuration makes use of embedded SAP NetWeaver
BW in SAP ERP systems based on SAP ECC 6.0 or higher
Uses HTTP connection to source system
• Sidecar approach available
Used for older versions of ECC (no embedded BW) Customers who do not wish to use embedded BW
Install SAP NetWeaver BW 7.x system external to ECC system
May use SAP NetWeaver BW powered by SAP HANA ifavailable

Special Considerations for Specif ic Solutions
• Some SAP HANA solutions place specific restrictions on the
source system, in addition to what is imposed by the desired
integration servers CO-PA Accelerator requires SAP ERP 6.0
Smart Meter Analytics requires SAP NetWeaver BW 7.30
SAP NetWeaver BW powered by SAP HANA requires SAPNetWeaver BW 7.30
• Some SAP HANA solutions dictate the choice of integration
servers
Smart Meter Analytics requires SAP Data Services 4.0

Impacts to Source System by SAP HANA
Solution
• CO-PA Accelerator example
SAP ERP 6.0 is required
May have to upgrade SAP ERP system as part ofimplementation
• SAP Smart Meter Analytics example
SAP NetWeaver BW 7.30 SPS 04 is required May have to upgrade SAP NetWeaver BW system
Alternatively, may have to set up special purpose SAP
NetWeaver BW system SAP BusinessObjects Data Services XI 4.0 SP02 is required

Impacts to Source System by Data Transfer
Method• Sybase Replication Server
Most restrictive of all the replication methods
No longer used for new implementations• SLT Server
SAP ERP and other ABAP applications
4.6C and higher — No upgrade needed for most customers Non-SAP databases
Must adhere to SAP NetWeaver 7.02 OS/DB restrictions
• SAP BusinessObjects Data Services
Imposes fewest restrictions on data sources
No real-time replication (scheduled data loads)
Supports lower data volumes compared to replication

When to Implement Custom/Complex
Applications• Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA example
Steps to implement
Upgrade SAP BusinessObjects to 4.0 Upgrade SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse to 7.30
Optimize SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse
Migrate database to SAP HANA Advantages
Improve query performance
Potentially simplify landscape by eliminating SAP NetWeaverBW Accelerator
Simplify administration (e.g., elimination of aggregates)
Summary: Benefits outweigh increased costs for more complex

Benefits of Rapid Deployment Solution
• Natural extension of appliance concept
Only SAP and certified partners (e.g., HP and Accenture) are
permitted to deliver solution• Reduced need for extensive in-house expertise or consulting
services significantly reduces cost of implementation
• Significantly reduces time to value if ready-made solutionmatches business needs

7 Key Points to Take Home
• Carefully examine your business requirements and identify a clear
objective that SAP HANA can help you achieve
• Give strong consideration to implementing one of the ready-madesolutions available from SAP
This will typically reduce the length of the implementation,
reduce costs, and very quickly show value to the business
• Carefully evaluate impacts to the existing systems – not just the
cost of the SAP HANA system itself – and try to select a solution
that is minimally disruptive as a starting point
• Consider your requirements for high availabili ty and disasterrecovery, in addition to sizing requirements for SAP HANA
As SAP’s vision for SAP HANA matures, you may find that it
becomes the central database in your landscape

7 Key Points to Take Home (cont.)
• Consider all of the options for getting data into the SAP HANA
system and select those that are least disruptive and offer the most
flexibility for the future For example, installing SLT on your SAP ERP system may seem
like an inexpensive approach, but it limits your abili ty to integrate
other systems into the SAP HANA landscape over time
• Do not be overly preoccupied with issues of scalability SAP HANA capacit ies will increase over time (HP already has
customers testing configurations larger than 16 nodes)
•
Leverage the resources of your hardware partner andimplementation partner to plan the SAP HANA implementation as
fully as possible — Down to the hostnames and IP addresses of the
new SAP HANA and related systems
Eliminate unexpected, costly surprises during the implementation
