7 Key Points to Take Home
Start Small – Simple calculation view and data model.
Don’t build for a wide community. Try something simple.
Keep the end goal in mind
Minimize the number of layers
Merge data in DSO and build HANA models on it.
Will eliminate need for cubes.
Use either HANA models or traditional BW, but don’t use both
Be careful with data loads. Consider going to the source system when it
makes sense. Master Data should be taken into account.
Security! Understand upfront the implications of applying security in
Native HANA vs Traditional BW.
