Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud INTRODUCTION This technical documentation is a step-by-step guide on how to get started with building an application in SAP HANA, express edition and deploying it to the cloud. The purpose of this guide is to provide an example of this “developing in SAP HANA, express edition and deploying to cloud” workflow – a multi-target application in Java, node.js, HANA DB and SAPUI5. The assumption here is that the user has already installed SAP HANA, express edition and has an active instance running, along with SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA ready for development. If you do not have SAP HANA, express edition installed and running yet, please visit the Prerequisites section of this document. You may also visit the SAP HANA, express edition landing page for instructions and more information: https://www.sap.com/developer/topics/sap-hana-express.html Please note: For definitions and explanation of terms and abbreviations, please refer to the GLOSSARY at the end of this document 3 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud Prerequisites for development in SAP HANA, express edition 4 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud PREREQUISITES Before deep-diving into the examples, here are a set of prerequisite steps you need to have covered, to have SAP HANA, express edition installed and running. Getting started with installation and setup of SAP HANA, express edition Follow the 1-2-3 Get Started steps on the SAP HANA, express edition landing page: https://www.sap.com/developer/topics/sap-hana-express.html Register for SAP HANA, express edition if you have not already done so. You will be directed to a Success Page from where you can download the appropriate Download Manager for your work environment. This Download Manager is a utility that will enable you to download SAP HANA, express edition and install it. You can install and run SAP HANA, express edition either on-premise or on the cloud. There are 2 types of on-premise SAP HANA, express edition installation solutions – using a binary installer, or a virtual machine image. To help you decide which one you should choose for on- premise installation, visit this tutorial: https://www.sap.com/developer/how-tos/2016/09/hxe-ua- version.html Once you have decided on the type of installation that fits your needs, proceed to installing SAP HANA, express edition with your chosen installation method. For each method, there are further configuration and setup steps that need to be followed. Please follow the related tutorial workflow for each on-premise installation method: o Binary installer method: https://www.sap.com/developer/groups/hxe-install-binary.html o Virtual machine image method: https://www.sap.com/developer/groups/hxe-install-vm.html Please note, for each installation method, when you open the download manager, you will be given the option to download either a Server Only installer, or a Server + Applications package. To develop with XSA, you will need to install the Server + Applications installer (hxexsa.ova) Alternatively, you can also launch SAP HANA, express edition on the Google Cloud Platform: https://www.sap.com/developer/groups/hxe-install-gcp.html Follow these further instructions to help you prepare for development tutorials on SAP HANA, express edition: https://www.sap.com/developer/how-tos/2016/09/hxe-howto-tutorialprep.html Getting started with XSA: Basic development Here are some getting started tutorials to help you get familiar with XSA based development: Connect to the SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA: https://www.sap.com/developer/tutorials/xsa-connecting- webide.html Create an HTML5 module: https://www.sap.com/developer/tutorials/xsa-html5-module.html Create an HDI module: https://www.sap.com/developer/tutorials/xsa-hdi-module.html Connecting to SAP HANA, express edition with SAP HANA Studio: https://www.sap.com/developer/how- tos/2016/09/hxe-howto-eclipse.html For more tutorials on XSA, go to the tutorials section of the SAP HANA, express edition landing page: https://www.sap.com/developer/topics/sap-hana-express.tutorials.html Onboarding with SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry This guide shows how you can deploy your SAP HANA, express edition application to SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry. The steps in the guide thus assume that you already have the SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry client interface installed and the necessary tools set up. Please refer to the documentation on SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry for more details: https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/cf-cli/ 5 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud Sample Multi-Target Application 6 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud SAMPLE MULTI-TARGET APPLICATION This section highlights the process of building a multi-target application based on Java, node.js, SAPUI5 and HANA DB, in SAP HANA, express edition using SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA, and then deploying it both on- premise and on the SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry. Step 1: Clone the source code from an existing project Import the source code of an existing MTA project by cloning the repository using git. Right click on your Workspace folder in SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA and select Git Clone Repository A popup modal appears, asking for details of the repository to be cloned. Enter the following URL to clone the repository: https://github.com/I809764/smallEx1.git Wait for the repository to be cloned. Once cloned, it should appear on your workspace. Note: For additional guidance on cloning git repositories, please refer to this tutorial: SAP HANA XS Advanced, Connecting to SAP Web IDE and cloning a Git Repository to begin development: https://www.sap.com/developer/tutorials/xsa-connecting-webide.html You should have your repository cloned in your workspace like this: 7 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud Note: This cloned project will only work on HANA 2.0 SPS 01. Please check this before building the project in the upcoming steps, to avoid build errors. Now that the project has been successfully cloned, we will dive into each of the components of the project – the main modules: HANA Database Module: This module contains the database table. The data model is self-contained within the application itself. Java Module: This module contains a V4 OData service Node.js Module: This module contains a V2 XSODATA service Basic HTML5 Module: This module contains the SAPUI5 user interface Step 2: Build the MTAR Next, we need to build the project. Before you can do that, you need to define the project space. Right click on the project folder and go to Project Settings. 8 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud Under the project settings, go to the Space tab, select a Space for your project (here it is SAP), and then click on Save and then Close. Now right click again on your project folder and select Build. When your project has successfully completed the build step, you can see the following log in your console: 9 Build with SAP HANA, express edition and deploy to cloud Notice that an MTA archive has been created.

Smartphone sales exceeded even the most optimis- tic forecasts of experts, with a 74 percent increase from the previous year – around a battle between Apple and Google Android for supremacy at the expense of traditional leaders Nokia and RIM BlackBerry. It was the same story for Tablets with 17.4 million units sold in 2010 led by Apple, but once again with Google Android in hot pursuit. Analyst predictions for shipments suggest that the tablet market will continue its exponential growth curve to the extent that even the usually cautious Gartner think that by 2013 there will be as many Tablets in use in an enterprise as PCs with a profound impact on the IT environment. On February 7, as part of the Gartner ‘First Thing Monday’ series under the title ‘The Digital Natives are Restless, The impending Revolt against the IT Nanny State’ Gartner analyst Jim Shepherd stated; “I am regularly hearing middle managers and even senior executives complaining bit- terly about IT departments that are so focussed on the global rollout of some monolith- ic solution that they have no time for new and innovative technologies that could have an immediate impact on the business.

  • Compact and Efficient Representation of General Graph Databases
    This is a post-peer-review, pre-copyedit version of an article pub- lished in Knowledge and Information Systems. The final authenti- cated version is available online at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/ s10115-018-1275-x Compact and Efficient Representation of General Graph Databases1 Sandra Alvarez-Garc´ıa´ 1, Borja Freire2, Susana Ladra3 and Oscar´ Pedreira3 1Indra, A Coru~na,Spain; 2 Enxenio S.L., A Coru~na,Spain; 3 Universidade da Coru~na, CITIC, Database Laboratory, A Coru~na,Spain Abstract. In this paper, we propose a compact data structure to store labeled at- tributed graphs based on the k2-tree, which is a very compact data structure designed to represent a simple directed graph. The idea we propose can be seen as an extension of the k2-tree to support property graphs. In addition to the static approach, we also pro- pose a dynamic version of the storage representation, which allows flexible schemas and insertion or deletion of data. We provide an implementation of a basic set of operations, which can be combined to form complex queries over these graphs with attributes. We evaluate the performance of our proposal with existing graph database systems and prove that our compact attributed graph representation obtains also competitive time results.

All rights reserved. About this document This document is part of a series about working with SAP on Google Cloud. The series includes the following documents: ● High availability (this document) ● Migration strategies ● Backup strategies and solutions ● Disaster-recovery strategies Introduction The term high availability (HA) is used to describe an architecture that improves a system’s ​ ​ availability. The availability of a system refers to a user’s ability to connect to the system and conduct the required operations. If a user can’t connect, the system is perceived as unavailable, regardless of the underlying issue. For example, a networking issue can prevent users from accessing the service, even though the system is running. A high-availability setup interacts with multiple components of the architecture to minimize the points of failure, typically by using redundancy. To measure a service’s performance throughout the year, the metric of percentage of uptime is ​ ​ used to calculate the ratio of uptime to the aggregate of uptime and downtime. A system that is available for ~8750 hours during the 8760 hours of a year has an uptime of 99.89% (8750/8760) and a downtime of 10 hours.

Esri is a geospatial data company based in Redlands, Calif. Recent releases of SAP HANA have included features that integrated Esri geospatial data into HANA applications, and the SAP Geographic Enablement Framework extends this integration as a standalone product, according to Karsten Hauschild, SAP solution manager. The framework helps organizations to enrich business applications with geospatial data from geographic information systems (GIS) like Esri ArcGIS, Hauschild said. This can help drive applications that go beyond the simple map-related software found on consumer mobile devices. “If you look at what’s going on now, these map-driven user experiences are enabled on these mobile devices with built-in GPS, but that’s only on the con- sumer side, and they are satisfied by locating places or checking directions,” PAGE 3 OF 9 SPONSORED BY NEW SAP FRAMEWORK MARRIES GEOSPATIAL DATA WITH HANA BUSINESS DATA Hauschild said.

  • The Topic of Procedures and HANA SQL Script for SAP Business One, Version for SAP HANA
    Welcome to the topic of procedures and HANA SQL Script for SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA. 1 At the end of this topic, you will be able to describe how procedures can be used for modeling and list some tips for working with HANA SQL Script. We will see how to create a procedure . 3 HANA procedures are frequently used as a data source for dashboards and Crystal reports. You can use procedures separately or in combination with views. 4 We have looked at calculation views, now we will look at procedures. What is the difference between a procedure and calculation view and when should each be used? Procedures are quite popular for use in Crystal Reports and dashboards. We can use a query as a data source for both Crystal or a dashboard, but if we had instead created a calculation view, we could only consume it in Crystal as a table. In dashboard development you cannot include a table as a data source. You always run a query to retrieve a dataset as data source for a dashboard. From the perspective of the semantic model, a calculation view can define attributes and measures. Using the MDX query, we can do some aggregation over the measures during the query execution. However, we can not do an MDX query over a procedure. In summary, a calculation view can be retrieved as a semantic model, while just a simple query cannot be regarded as a semantic model and cannot be invoked in an MS Excel pivot table. However, another possible option for dashboard development is to use the combination of a calculation view and a query for a dashboard.
