SAP BUSINESS WAREHOUSE 7.5 SUMMARY OF REFERENCES
INTRODUCTION
SAP BW powered by SAP HANA was the very first SAP application that ran completely on top of SAP HANA and has meanwhile reached a great
adoption. For many customers it has become the entry point for their SAP HANA roadmap. Customers will benefit not only from phantastic performance
improvements for data load, query runtime and planning functions but also in simplified data modeling as the number of InfoProviders are highly
reduced and all modeling is done within in a new, modern UI that is unique across all modeling tools. At the same time data layers are reduced and with
the new virtualization capabilities BW can also serve as the “Logical Data Warehouse”.
HANA Data Warehousing: The HANADW
With this blog Thomas Zurek sheds some light into the direction that SAP is taking towards a unified offering for building a data warehouse on top of
HANA. The unofficial working title is the HANA DW. The blog is divided into 3 sections, each addressing the most pressing questions from customers
who have already seen flavors of this. Read more about SAP's overall Data warehouse strategy and find out about the highlights of SAP BW 7.5 with
SP04 in the SAP BW 7.5 SP4 powered by SAP HANA Overview and Roadmap.
