Overview
The SPS12 release is upon us, and with it a few great new features for SDA: Kerberos constrained delegation, UPSERT support, ROW_NUMBER support, performance optimizations and more.
What is SAP HANA Smart Data Access?
For those of you not so familiar with SDA, it has been available as a part of SAP HANA since SPS6 and gives you the power to expose data from remote sources as virtual tables in SAP HANA. This is a huge advantage compared to traditional ETL processes in many situations as it is gives you a cost-efficient, easy-to-deploy option to get real-time data visibility across fragmented data sources. Not to mention the advantage it brings in terms of location agnostic development when building applications on HANA which need to leverage data from multiple sources.
