Each and every business is unique due to its procedures and functions and business heads are aware that an ERP system like SAP can integrate both and accomplish the desired outcome.

So this article is especially for those groups that wish to gain basic knowledge about these two products by SAP.

Know the difference between SAP HANA and SAP S/4 HANA

What is SAP HANA?

SAP HANA is usually described as the backbone that typically runs the SAP landscape. SAP HANA is the in-memory database technology and an innovative column-oriented Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) which is used to save, collect and analyze data of integrated business activities. SAP HANA IS better than other RDBMSs because it is built with a much simpler structure and has a lower memory footprint. Enterprises run various modules on SAP HANA such as finance, HR, logistics, etc. based on their business requirements. SAP HANA can do real-time analysis and crunch data nearly instantly which allows businesses to make quick business decisions even in changing situations for significant benefit.

The ESDS SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud (HEC) provides an Infrastructure-as-a-Service along with fully managed services which includes hosting of all SAP HANA and Non-HANA Applications (SAP ERP, CRM, SAP BW and any in-house developed or third party applications) to provide auto scalable solutions. SAP allows their partners and customers to deploy their own SAP applications into HEC or deploy SAP software on subscription-based model and we at ESDS provide solutions and services to take it one notch up to create that ‘competitive edge’ for our customers and partners.

The infrastructure is provided as a Private Cloud so it can support resources scaling feature whenever required on need basis. It helps real-time computing based on SAP HANA Platform, which is an add-on advantage of SAP because no other vendor has the experience of managing Infrastructure, SAP HANA Database, SAP Business Application and its mission critical support. So, in SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud Platform the SAP Team completely takes care of everything on their own and becomes a single point of contact for managing Infrastructure, Managed Services and Application deployment/management.


It helps to make the deployment simpler because of choices to deploy SAP faster and without any disruption.

Below are the key benefits of SAP HEC when partnered with ESDS:
