SAP NetWeaver BW Running on Classical DBTypical Challenges

Classical DB Approach

Reporting Performance Query performance not optimal to meet needs of business users

Real-Time Data Access Traditional latency issues with getting timely information

Planning Performance Planning speed slow due to bottleneck of reading & writing data to/from a classical database

Loading Performance Challenging loading windows; loading and consolidation of data not optimal

Performance Optimization

Requires management of database like indexes, aggregates and DBA operations as well as management of BWA

IT Involvement High IT workloads, restricted self-service capabilities, complex modeling; IT becomes the bottleneck

• Compression due to columnar technology and elimination of

redundant data shrinks database size dramatically

• Reorganize BW layer with reduced complexity and redundant data

persistence in different aggregation level

• Database and SAP BWA merging into one instance for lower TCO

and reduced admin tasks

Simplified Infrastructure & Reduced IT Activities

• Eliminate the need for indexes and aggregates

• Simplified administration via one set of admin tools

• One single platform for all types of analytics and data marts

Classical Approach v/s SAP BW on HANA Approach

Classical Approach (SAP BW on Oracle Exadata)

In-Memory Approach(SAP BW on HANA)

Reporting Performance

Requires BWA to deal with performance acceleration of queries

Fast Reporting Access on All SAP BW data without BWA

Real-Time Data Access

Traditional latency issues with getting timely information

Leverage Real-Time Replication to get up to the minute insight

Simulate More and Plan Faster!

Planning requires reading data from Exadata and writing back to Exadata

(calculations in ABAP)

Planning performs calculations in-memory!

Superior Loading Performance

Loading and consolidation occurs in ABAP (Exadata only used for read and write)

Loading Performance pushed into HANA natively!

Simplified Maintenance

Requires DB management of Exadata (indexes, statistics, DBA operations) as

well as management of BWA to get good performance

No indexes, statistics, or DBA maintenance required!

Modeling Flexibility

Cannot add/remove dimensions without re-modeling toolkit (very costly operation)

Flexibly remodel cubes quickly and reduce materialized layers!

Plus NW 7.3 Has Additional EnhancementsNew features of BW 7.3 (Without HANA)

1. Semantic Partitioning increases scalability, flexibility, reduces development & maintenance overhead

2. Graphical Data Flow Modeling simplifies BW modeling to a large extent

3. Automated Tools to reduce development efforts

4. Numerous optimizations to Data Store Objects to support database partitioning by time characteristics, activation by single look ups etc.

5. Accelerated data loads for Master data by using mass lookup instead of single look up

6. Tight integration with Sybase IQ as a Near-line storage including process delegation

7. Real-time data access at runtime using Hybrid Provider

8. End-to-End Data lineage & impact analysis using Metadata Management & Information Steward

9. Optimizations to Integrated planning to reduce TCO associated with BW based planning applications
