 Note

As of January 2021, SAP HANA dynamic tiering is not available for purchase. It will remain available and supported for existing customers until further notice.

A multistore table is a partitioned SAP HANA table that has at least one partition in SAP HANA and other partitions in dynamic tiering extended storage. Dynamic tiering provides extended storage as an alternate physical store for SAP HANA table partitions. Multistore tables are managed and monitored just like other columnar tables, but offer the advantages of disk-based storage for less frequently accessed data through extended storage.

Hot data is valuable, frequently accessed business data; warm data is accessed less frequently and is less valuable. By using dynamic tiering to place hot data in SAP HANA in-memory tables, and warm data in either extended tables or multistore tables, the highest value data remains in-memory, and cooler less-valuable data is saved in the extended store. This can reduce the size of your in-memory database.

The following features are available:

 Note

SAP HANA server software and tools can be used for several SAP HANA platform and options scenarios as well as the respective capabilities used in these scenarios. The availability of these is based on the available SAP HANA licenses and the SAP HANA landscape, including the type and version of the back-end systems the SAP HANA administration and development tools are connected to. There are several types of licenses available for SAP HANA. Depending on your SAP HANA installation license type, some of the features and tools described in the SAP HANA platform documentation may only be available in the SAP HANA options and capabilities, which may be released independently of an SAP HANA Platform Support Package Stack (SPS). Although various features included in SAP HANA options and capabilities are cited in the SAP HANA platform documentation, each SAP HANA edition governs the options and capabilities available. Based on this, customers do not necessarily have the right to use features included in SAP HANA options and capabilities. For customers to whom these license restrictions apply, the use of features included in SAP HANA options and capabilities in a production system requires purchasing the corresponding software license(s) from SAP. If you have additional questions about what your particular license provides, or wish to discuss licensing features available in SAP HANA options, please contact your SAP account team representative.
