DISCLAIMER
Sizing recommendations apply for certified hardware only. Please contact
hardware vendor for suitable hardware configuration.
Note that HANA is constantly being optimized. This might have impact on
sizing recommendations, which will be reflected in this document. Therefore,
check for the latest version of relevant sizing notes.
Note that the sizing guideline in this document refers to SAP BW on HANA
(aka Orange) only. Additional applications running on top of HANA are not
covered in this document. Please refer to application specific sizing
guidelines for details in that case.

SAP BW on HANA Sizing Elements
SAP BW on HANA sizing consists of
Memory sizing for column store data
Memory sizing for row store data
Memory sizing for objects created during runtime
(data load and query execution)
Disk Sizing

Sizing Approaches
Depending on project status, there are three sizing approaches available for
HANA:
•
QuickSizer Approach
•
Suitable for customer that start „from scratch“
•
•
Some details on data models known (such as largest cubes, DSOs, user numbers, etc.)
Not suitable for customers who plan to migrate an existing BW
•
DB specific scripts
•
•
Analyze data volumes of an existing BW system, based on database dictionary and statistics
information
Scripts available for Oracle, DBx, MSSQL, MaxDB
•
OS access / DB admin required to run scripts
•
Fast (runtime: < 5 mins)
•
New: ABAP based sizing report
•
Analyzes data volume of an existing BW system, based on data samples
•
•
DB independent report coming with Support Tools Plug-in
Much more accurate than script based sizing
• Strongly recommended, preferred sizing tool

QuickSizer For SAP HANA
1. Start QuickSizer tool: https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/quicksizer
– QuickSizer general help
2. Create new project
3. Choose ‘SAP NetWeaver BW powered by SAP HANA’ questionnaire
© 2012 SAP AG. All rights reserved.
5
QuickSizer For SAP HANA (cont.)
4. Read help ‘How to fill in questionnaire’
5. Fill out the relevant sections
o Table 5: Definition of InfoCubes for HANA
(relevant for HANA sizing)
o Table 6: Definition of DataStore Objects on HANA (relevant for HANA sizing)
All other sections are used for BW Application Server Sizing!

Sizing with DB Specific Scripts
DB specific scripts and sizing information provided by note 1637145
•
Unix/Linux and Windows scripts draw information from database dictionary tables to
determine size of tables in database (excluding indexes, temp table spaces, etc.)
•
Distinction between row store tables and column store tables: different compression
factors Scripts deliver two values: row store tables footprint and col store tables
footprint. These values need to be fed into sizing formula (see next slide)
•
Scripts for DB2 family (DB2, DB4, DB6) take into account source database
compression, other scripts don‘t (compression factor has to be applied manually)
•
To execute scripts, operating system access with DB administrator privileges is required
•
Scripts rely on up-to-date database statistics
•
Note: after a system cleanup (deletion of unnecessary data) the database system might
not reflect the freed space before table reorganization has been performed
Important: ABAP application server sizing to be done separately!

BW on HANA Sizing Formula
RAM:
RAM = ( colstore tables footprint * 2 / 4 +
rowstore tables footprint
/ 1.5 ) * c1) + 50 GB
Disk:
DISKpersistence = 4 * RAM
DISKlog = 1 * RAM
1)
c = source database specific compression factor (only required if source
database compression is used and source database is other than any
of the DB2 family)

BW on HANA Sizing Formula: Remarks
Explanation of constants:
RAM = ( colstore tables footprint * 2 / 4 +
rowstore tables footprint
/ 1.5 ) * c1) + 50 GB
•
Uplift for runtime objects
•
Average compression factor for col store
•
Average compression factor for row store
•
Source DB compression factor
•
Uplift for HANA caches, additional services, etc.

BW on HANA Sizing Formula: Procedure and Example
1. Download archive „get_size.zip“ from SAP note 1637145 attachments
2. Extract script suitable for your DB and Operating system
3. Extract file „load_RowStore_List.sql“ into same folder
4. Execute script, result will be stored in file „Extent.txt“
5. Read sizing figures from script output:
6. Feed figures into Sizing formula:
Assumption: source DB compressed by factor 1.8
RAM = ( colstore tables footprint * 2 / 4 +
rowstore tables footprint) / 1.5 ) * DB compression + 50 GB
= (672 GB * 2 / 4 + 50 GB / 1.5) * 1.8 + 50 GB = 715 GB
Diskpersistence = 715 GB * 4 = 2,860 GB
Disklog
= 715 GB

ABAP Based Sizing
ABAP report developed to overcome deficiencies of DB scripts:
•
DB independence
•
Easier deployment
•
Distinct size information for different types of tables (InfoCubes, DSOs, PSAs, …)
•
Extrapolation of memory consumption based on future growth
•
More sophisticated sizing approaches (e.g. non-active data) coming soon!
Availability
•
Prerequisite: Support Tools Plug-in ST-PI 2008_1_7xx SP7
•
Preliminary version based on ST-PI 2008_1_7xx SP6 available with note 1736976
•
Report: /SDF/HANA_BW_SIZING for full system sizing
•
Function Module: /SDF/HANA_TABLE_SIZE for single tables or list of tables
Documentation
•
Please read documentation attached to note 1736976 for details and tips how to run the
report

ABAP Based Sizing: How it works …
Sizing based on sample data
•
•
•
•
For each DB table read small set of sample records into ABAP source DB
compression can be neglected!
Determine average record length
Calculate table size based on row count from DB statistics (need to be up to date!)
Automatic distinction between row store and column store tables
Versatile parameterization
•
•
•
Parallel execution: List of tables distributed across multiple processes to speed up
runtime
Different levels of precision (resulting in different sample sizes) – ‘Low’ good enough in
most cases!
Future growth projection
Distinct results
•
•
•
Total sizes for InfoCubes, DSOs, Change Logs and PSA tables are determined
Sizes of individual tables help identify potential for clean-up operations
Automatically applies sizing formula: result contains data + runtime memory

12
/SDF/HANA_BW_SIZING: Selection Screen
Store output to file directly. If not set, a result
screen will be displayed (wich still can be
saved as a file at a later point of time).
File name for output (relative to SAP work
directoy, or absolute path name)
Number of parallel work processes used for
sampling. Note: free dialog porcesses
required for each process!
In detailed list of tables, suppress those with
sizes lower than 1 MB.
Precision setting: decreases / increases
data sample rate. Note: lower precision
means less run time!
Enter number of years and amount of growth
(absolute in GB or relative in %)
Future growth: calculate future HANA
requirements for next few years, based
on relative or absolute yearly growth

13
/SDF/HANA_BW_SIZING: Output Screen / Report (1)
Total source size and number of tables
relevant for row store
Total size and number of tables relevant for
column store
Size and number of tables corresponding to
InfoCubes, DSOs, Change Logs, PSAs and
Master Data, number of aggregate tables
Total number of tables processed
Share of resources for row store and
column store (data ony and data including
dynamic runtime memory)

tables may be good candidates for data
cleansing to reduce memory requirements.
Report shows ABAP size and size in HANA
memory
Detailed size information for each column
store table (sorted by size descending).
Helps to identify good candidates for data
cleansing to reduce memory requirements
(e.g. very large PSA tables, etc.)
Distinuishes between PSA (P) and
Change Log (C) tables

16
Outlook: Not-Active Data in HANA
Non-active data concept available with NetWeaver BW SPS8 and HANA SP5
hot
warm
cool
Data is read/written frequently
In Memory, additional memory required for dynamic objects (merge, intermediate results, etc.)
Mostly read access – lookups, transformations, etc.
In Memory, no additional memory required for dynamic objects
Infrequent access – no need to keep in memory all the time
On disk, loaded to memory only on demand, good candidate for displacement if memory runs short
Will be reflected in next version (V1.3) of Sizing Report – coming soon!
•
•
Optimized usage of HANA memory resources
Modeling of LSA concepts (Corporate Memory, …)
NOTE: Due to the complexity of the sizing algorithm, only the ABAP report will
be able to consider non-active data. Database scripts and QuickSizer will NOT
be changed to reflect this feature!

BW on HANA Sizing: Scale Out
If a single HANA node cannot accommodate data due to limited memory, data
has to be distributed across multiple nodes (scale-out).
Symmetric solution: 1 master node, n slave nodes, all on identical hardware
Master node will handle system load and transactional load: ABAP system tables and
general operational data of the BW are stored on the master node. DDL statements are
executed on this node, global locks are acquired here.
Slave nodes will handle OLAP queries as well as loading/staging/activation/merging.
BW data (master data + cubes/DSOs/PSAs) is distributed across all slaves. This ensures a
balanced utilization of the available CPU and memory resources.
Easy extensibility: When a new slave is added, BW data can quickly be reorganized to fit
the new system. More information here: http://help.sap.com/hana/hana_db_part_en.pdf
Optional: stand-by node(s) can take over in case of node failure

HANA BW Scale Out Concept:
Exception for systems with a single slave node
Please see note 1702409 why this setup is not recommended.
Master Node
holds system tables, all row tables
DDL execution, global locks, database metadata
Master
System Tables
Slave Node
holds master data, fact, DSO and PSA tables
Slave
Standby Node (optional)
can take over role of master or slave node for failover
For special requirements, master data tables may
optionally be moved to the master node. This can lead
to performance degradation. Master data tables may
be moved manually (there is no official tool support) or
with the help of a consulting note.
