Simplify administration and boost the performance of large deployments with recommendations for system optimisation and data tiering based on actual operating conditions and delivered through the SAP HANA cockpit
Scale hybrid transactional analytical processing (HTAP) workloads efficiently with fine-grain control in allocating computing resources to different types of consumers
Streamline infrastructure administration and accelerate resource provisioning through software-based, centralised management of computing, storage, and network resources with a choice of certified hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) from SAP partners
High availability
Increase system availability with new multitarget system replication options that can change replication paths automatically after system failures and improve recoverability across distributed landscapes
Improve system recoverability and resource utilisation by deploying multiple active secondary systems at regional locations, which can deliver faster local-read access to data
Optimise the latency for written transactions across geographically distributed landscapes by rotating the primary system across data centres as business activities come to life in new time zones
Data security and privacy
Share data with employees, customers, and partners without compromising data privacy
Apply expanded anonymization models, such as L-diversity, as well as simplified hierarchy configuration and configurable data retention policies to improve auditability
Reduce sampling bias and aggregate geo-coordinates quickly with support for in-database hexagon clustering, which is accessible from Esri ArcGIS
Reduce the storage footprint of geospatial data by a factor of two and use the tools of your choice with the expanded support for open source geo-services
Benefit from cloud APIs for global forecasting and historical weather, simplify custom modelling by taking advantage of ready-to-use statistical models, and use an intuitive labelling tool, powered by machine learning, to identify landscape features in earth observation images – all available in SAP Cloud Platform, SAP HANA service
