SAP’s strategic EDW solutionSAP BW 7.4 on HANA

Only the combination of BW and HANA enables us to

… simplify the data modeling processes

… increase the agility of the Enterprise Data Warehouse

… reduce the complexity of the EDW landscape

… combine the strengths of an SQL oriented approach with an Integrated EDW application

SAP BW on HANA – Smarter, simpler, more efficientHow Does BW running on RDBMS differ from BW running on HANA ?

Customer value of SAP BW powered bySAP HANA

Excellent query performancefor improved decision makingPerformance boost for Data Load processesfor decreased data latencyAccelerated In-Memory planning capabilitiesfor faster planning scenariosFlexible combine EDW with HANA-nativedata for real-time insights and decision makingData persistency layers are cut off andreduced administration effortsSimplified data modeling and remodeling
