Enable Operational Process Intelligence on your HANA, express edition

With the HANA Rules Framework (HRF) in my blog, I was wondering whether I could move my HANA, express edition to the next level and enable Operational Process Intelligence (OPI) that needs HRF as a prerequisite.

As it turned out, this was again quite straight forward:

1. Download and install the delivery units
2. Configure OPI
3. Install Eclipse Business Scenario and Workflow Editor plugins
4. Model Business Scenario

Enable the HANA Rules Framework on your HANA, express edition

With SDI in the bag, I was wondering whether I could enable the HANA Rules Framework (HRF) on my HANA, express edition in a similar way.

As it turned out, this was also absolutely possible and if fact quite straight forward as well:

1. increase the virtual machine memory to 12GB
2. Create a tenant database
3. Enable HTTP and HTTPS access to the tenant database
4. Import the HRF delivery unit
5. Set Up a Technical User

Visualizing SAP HRF Rule Results in SAP Lumira – Part 2

SAP Lumira Desktop Preparation and Presentation

Data Source

The first thing to understand is that SAP Lumira cannot be directly connected to the SAP HRF column view “SAP_HRF”.“sap.demo-store.sales.resources ::Sales Analysis.VIEW”. The SAP Lumira data source must be a cube such as those created by an Analytic View or a Calculation View. I therefore need to build one of these against my rule service column view.
