Speed Data Access for More-Informed Decisions with
SAP® Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA®
For years, companies that need to manage large volumes of data
and ensure the integrity of information have turned to the SAP ®
Business Warehouse (SAP BW) application. SAP has continually
evolved SAP BW to help ensure a flexible, scalable foundation
for enterprise data warehousing that supports data from SAP and
third-party sources. Now SAP delivers the next stage of its data
warehouse vision with SAP BW powered by SAP HANA®.
Companies running SAP BW today on a relational database
management system will see dramatically improved performance
by moving to the version powered by SAP HANA. The in-memory
database architecture of the SAP HANA platform improves the
efficiency at which data can be loaded and processed, calculations can be computed, and queries and reports can be run.
These performance improvements help you gain a competitive
advantage by reducing data latency and increasing the availability
of key information that you need to make sound, timely decisions.
With SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA,
you can:
 Accelerate query and analysis, decrease data latency, and
drive faster, more informed planning
 Lower total cost of ownership, reduce IT workloads, and
speed response to business requests
 Access all your data, increase business insight, and improve
and enhance self-service
 Deploy without changing SAP BW or retraining users, and all
business content, data flows, and security remain intact

Simplify IT and Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Companies running SAP BW powered by SAP HANA can expect
a more streamlined IT landscape and a simplified administration
environment. The in-memory, columnar data storage architecture
of SAP HANA helps you lower total cost of ownership, reduce
IT workloads, and respond more quickly to business requests
for information. Greater operational efficiency helps you gain a
competitive advantage by reducing waste and increasing your
ability to use data to run your business better.
Find out how you can get to your data faster than ever before
and drive business value and innovation, all while lowering
costs, with SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA.
For businesspeople, SAP HANA helps unlock the power of
your data across the enterprise. Decreased data latency and
increased availability help you gain a competitive advantage
through greater business flexibility.
At SAP we recognize that value is derived both from technical
improvements and by minimizing business disruption. We
understand you want to preserve your investment in SAP BW.
That’s why we’ve made sure that using SAP HANA requires only
a database migration, preserving SAP BW content and security
models and eliminating the need to retrain end users.
