With the introduction of SAP HANA, what
was once just a possibility now becomes a
reality. This next generation of SAP’s
in-memory technology provides a
multipurpose, in-memory appliance, giving
organizations the power to gain instant
insight into business operations while
enabling them to react quickly to changing
business conditions. SAP HANA lets
business users immediately access, model
and analyze all of their transactional and
analytical data in real-time – from virtually
any data source – and in a single
environment, without affecting existing
applications or systems.
