2. SAP HANA
SAP HANA is a high-performance in-memory
database that accelerates data-driven, real-
time decision-making actions, and sustains
all workloads, with the broadest advanced
analytics on multi-model data, on the premise
and in the cloud.
SAP HANA based applications offer the best
application efficiency by pressing the
execution into the database as feasible. All
the data is kept in the in-memory data source
so the reading data is much quicker as
compared to a conventional database.

SAPGUI for Windows
SAP FIORI is our User Interface Go-To Architecture, but for compatibility reasons SAPGUI for
Windows is still available (for exception see Simplification List).
Compatibility Views
SAP tries to keep migration effort on custom code as low as possible. Compatibility views
allow to keep read access unchanged. Additional tool support to detect custom Code
Adaption effort.
Stable Interfaces
The interfaces to integrate external systems are adapted in a compatible manner. Same
Inbound Data are mapped to new data structure where required. SAP S/4HANA, on-premise
edition, currently supports the existing published legacy interfaces.

23. Maintenance Planner
The Maintenance Planner checks the system with regards to business functions, industry solutions, and add-ons. If there
is no valid path for the conversion (for example, the add-on is not released yet), the Maintenance Planner prevents the
conversion.
Software Update Manager (SUM) with Database Migration Option (DMO)
The Software Update Manager (SUM) is the SAP tool that is used to update software. It is the main tool used to convert
your system to SAP S/4HANA, on premise edition. If your source system is not yet running on SAP HANA database, use
the database migration option (DMO) of the Software Update Manager to migrate your database to SAP HANA during
the conversion.
Simplification List
To allow our customers a better planning and estimation of their way to S/4HANA, we have created the “Simplification
list”. In this list we are describing in detail on a functional level what happens in S/4HANA to individual transactions and
solution capabilities. If some transactions or capabilities are falling away, this does not mean that we are
decommissioning functionality, but that we have merged this functionality with other elements or reflected it within a new
solution / architecture.
Pre-Checks
Pre-checks are shipped as SAP Notes to customers that want to convert to S/4HANA . Customers can use these pre-
checks to find out what mandatory steps they have to carry out before converting to S/4HANA. The results list the
instances that need addressing before attempting the conversion process. The checks are run twice again during the
conversion process: both times in the Software Update Manager (SUM). The conversion is stopped if errors persist.
Custom Code Checks
These checks are based on the Simplification list concept. S/4HANA simplifies business processes. Before converting to
S/4HANA, you need to check your custom code against the S/4HANA simplifications. These simplifications are loaded
into the Custom Code Check Tool. After you run the tool, you obtain a list of instances where your custom code does not
comply with the scope and data structure of SAP S/4HANA 1610, on-premise edition.

48. Benefits Of
Migrating To SAP
HANA
With SAP HANA your organization is much better equipped to handle, and even
go beyond, the Big Data trend. Not only will you be able to process a far greater
volume of data, but, thanks to changes in the way it’s stored and accessed,
you’ll also be able to make use of a much wider range of data.
The Power to Handle Bigger Data
Real-Time Analytic Capability
If your organization has a need for up-to-the-moment information or processes
reports that take a long time to generate, SAP HANA can undoubtedly help
you.
In-memory technology means you’ll waste no time loading data from one
location to another, and we’ve seen basic HANA setups process data up to
10-times faster. This drastically reduces the amount of time needed to perform
even the most comprehensive of reports.
Flexibility and Versatility
One of the greatest benefits of SAP HANA is its compatibility with other
databases, hardware and software, making it one of the most versatile data
solutions available. This means your team can achieve greater analytic
capabilities, without giving up the interfaces they trust.
This also means you’re able to apply these new analytic capabilities across
your old systems, allowing you to derive new insights and rethink old
assumptions based on misleading data.
