Did you know you can add Spatial Reference Systems to HANA?

By default, HANA has 4 preconfigured Spatial Reference Systems (SRS).  Two of the preconfigured ones most used are 4326 (WGS 84 Spheroidal) and 1000004326 (WGS 84 Planar). However, there are over 3000 other spatial reference systems and many of our customers utilize some of them.  So how do you add additional ones?

Synonyms in HANA XS Advanced, Configuration, Templating, Service Replacement

In the previous post I showed the complete end-to-end scenario of using synonyms in XS Advanced. In this post I will show, how more flexibility can be achieved.

The flexibility options do not really depend on whether accessing a classical schema or a generated HDI Container. Everything that is different was explained in the previous post. I will therefore only use a classical schema OR an HDI container as target, not both. And I will focus on the things that are different with flexible synonym targets.

Synonyms in HANA XS Advanced, Accessing Objects in an External Schema

In the previous post I introduced synonyms in XS Advanced (XSA) and created a very simple synonym. Now I will create synonyms pointing to objects I defined by myself.
Accessing Objects in a Classical Schema

I assume, that the external schema I want to access is already existing. The example schema EPM_DEV can be created by using repo https://github.com/CGilde/syn-prov-classic. I also assume, there is already a project with a db module existing in the XSA Web IDE. We will insert the synonyms into this project. A git repo for the project with the complete coding can be found at https://github.com/CGilde/syn-hdi-classic-1.

Synonyms in HANA XS Advanced, Introduction

Why Synonyms?

A complex HANA data warehouse might use several DB schemas in which tables, views and other
DB objects reside. E.g., there might be a replicated ERP schema managed by SLT, a Netweaver/BW schema managed by the Netweaver Stack, and a “native” HANA schema, all residing in the same HANA instance and all of them consumed by the same data warehouse application.

How to – Import SFLIGHT sample data into HANA from a local computer

As you discovered few seconds ago, HANA doesn’t come with any preloaded sample data.

So, before starting to play with your brand new system, you need to find and load some data.

Luckily SAP provides for free its flight data model (you can download it here unluckillly the previous link doesn’t work anymore; I will try to fix this issue asap) – it’s a good starting point since it contains a sufficient amount of data and a limited number of tables.

Let’s Build an Analytical Card for a Fiori Overview Page (with a HANA Backend)

The Proposed Process

Step 1: Identify the need
Step 2: Design
Step 3: Back-end development
Step 4: Front-end configuration (or really development at this point)

Installing Hana Server (SP12) and XS Advanced Runtime Components

The main purpose of this blog post is to list the steps required to provision a Hana SP12 System as a development server, along with XS Advanced runtime components such as the Database Catalog Tool (HRTT) and WebIDE.

Note – In this blog post we will be using command line tools for the installation. However, the last few steps should be applicable to even if you used the GUI.

Constant Selection in SAP HANA Using Dynamic Join

In SAP BW, there is this concept of “Constant Selection” where you can mark a selection in the Query Designer as constant. This means that navigation and filtering will have no effect on the selection at runtime.

In SAP HANA, there is no feature that directly supports this functionality. We have to model it ourselves. One way to implement it is through “self joins” and “dynamic joins”.
