New and Best Practices for Data Modeling with SAP HANA selected as TechEd Lecture of the Week

There is no better proof of the value to customers of a key SAP HANA capability as getting featured as ‘Lecture of the Week’ for the week of August 24th 2015, of course based on your interest on the SCN lecture replays as well as your presence and interest at TechEd on the floor!

Modeling SAP HANA Views as virtual data flows for operational reporting as well as analytic scenarios is a key approach to enable the real-time flavor of your application with SAP HANA. Therefore you need to be up-to-date on new capabilities as well as latest best practices.

In case that you missed the session or want to have a repeat, you can watch the replay below:

This lecture provides an overview and guidance from a best practice perspective about the modeling approaches in SAP HANA, while focusing on the unified editor for attribute-, analytics-, and calculation views. Further context is given about alternative approaches as well as indications of future directions in SAP HANA modeling.

Updates and Outlook for TechEd 2015

Since TechEd last year SAP HANA has moved on with lots of new capabilities also in the area of SAP HANA View modeling. For details see What’s New in Modeling with SAP HANA SPS09 (doc, recording) and What’s New in Modeling with SAP HANA SPS10 (doc, recording). We have specifically highlighted the new capabilities around SQL enablement of SAP HANA hierarchies with Calculation views in this blog.

For TechEd 2015 we’ve again prepared a series of sessions building on the new capabilities and practices like focusing on Calculation View modeling and introducing web-based graphical modeling tools. Of course a new and best practices session will summarize the key advancements again.

Here is a session recommendation list for your planning:
