We have created a cookbook to help you get maximum mileage out of your MySQL landscape by pairing it with SAP HANA. Here’s a list of what you can do:

1. Run HANA One side-by-side with MySQL2. Use Open Source ETL to batch load MySQL data into HANA One3. Make your apps location-intelligent by running geospatial processing on HANA One4. Perform ad-hoc analytics with your MySQL data moved loaded on HANA One5.Leveragefull-textsearch,naturallanguageprocessingandsentimentintelligenceinHANAOne(comingsoon!)6.RunpredictivemodelswithinthesameHANAOneinstance(comingsoon!)

Launch Your HANA One Instance

As a developer, you can start with SAP HANA Developer edition which offers a free HANA license and lower infrastructure cost. Once you are ready for production, you can switch to HANA One. The following two videos will walk youthroughthesubscriptionandconfigurationofSAP HANA One on AWS Marketplace. Note, the process is the same but newer versions may have minor differences in look and feel

Use Open Source ETL to load MySQL Data into HANA One

Once you have HANA One up and running, you may need to bring your application data from MySQL to HANA. It is your choice which ETL tool to use to replicate your MySQL data into HANA, try out one of the two tools used to load data from MySQL to HANA.

SAP HANA Cookbook for MySQL Developers Project

SAP HANA Cookbook project brings Big Data Advanced Analytics functionalitieslike Ad-hoc BI, Predictive, Text Mining and Geospatial processing to your MySQLlandscape. Learn how to quickly load, process and analyze data stored in yourMySQL db by pairing with a modern in-memory platform, SAP HANA.

SAP HANA is a modern in-memory columnar database to capture, store, and query terabytes of data in real-time. Its ability to simultaneously store (OLTP) and analyze (OLAP) large volumes of data gives developers a unique ability to build advanced analytic applications that operates at scale in a real-time environment. With SAP HANA, you will be able to:

Turbo-charge your applicationsAccelerate under performing applications by delivering real-time insights and snappy user experience.

Leverage Ad-hoc AnalyticsLegacy databases are mediocre at running analytics while inserting transaction data due to locking bottlenecks and excruciating slow joins. SAP HANA One allows you manage and analyze large volumes of data even when it is flooded with machine-generated data

Perform Multi-engine Query ProcessingUse SQL to perform predictive, text and geospatial analytics by combining relational with unstructured text and location data.

SAP HANA One is an instant delivery mechanism of SAP HANA in the cloud (available on AWS) with hourly pricing for productive uses.

You can build amazing web or mobile applications by taking advantage of SAP HANA’s powerful advanced analytics ca-pabilities like predictive, NLP (Natural Language Processing) and geospatial processing available right out-of-the-box. No need to download, install or configure anything. The functionality is also available in a SQL programming paradigm so it is very easy to learn and use. More than 1,200 startups have chosen SAP HANA to build their next-generation Big Data, predictive or real-time analytic solutions.

The SAP HANA Cookbook provides real examples, code snippets and tutorials to help MySQL developers run advanced in-memory analytics alongside their MySQL landscape.

Leverage full-text search, natural language processing and sentiment intelligence in SAP HANA One

See how I built a real-time movie rating app by using SAP HANA’s sentiment analysis capability on social media (twitter, user forum) data.

Build predictive applications using native or R algorithms using SAP HANA One

SAP HANA integrates R language directly so it becomes really easy to write predictive algorithms using R’s abundant external packages. We will use R’s recommenderlab to do movie recommendations. We also get many evaluation re-sults from these different recommenders, so that we can choose the best recommender based on one specific training dataset.
