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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Abilities_of_SAP_HANA\"><\/span>Abilities of SAP HANA <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Database Administration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analytics and Data Processing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data Security<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Application Development Tools<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data Integration and Replication And more\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_SAP_S4_HANA\"><\/span><strong>What\nis SAP S\/4 HANA?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">SAP S\/4 HANA is SAP\u2019s next-generation business suite which runs only on SAP HANA and is a successor of SAP ECC ERP. SAP S\/4 HANA is the fourth version of SAP Business Suite and uses SAP HANA as its main platform just like its predecessors. Basically SAP S\/4 HANA is very easy to use ERP which is agile and is used to solve complex operations which means huge amounts of data can be handled and processed in a very efficient way. &nbsp;SAP S\/4 HANA does not support batch processing of data which means data is not processed in batches which makes retrieval and processing of data very quickly in real-time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Abilities_of_SAP_S4_HANA\"><\/span>Abilities of SAP S\/4 HANA<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Predictive analysis <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artificial Intelligence<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Complex Data Management<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Multiple Deployment Models<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Greater Workload Capacity And more\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Comparison_between_SAP_HANA_and_SAP_S4_HANA\"><\/span><strong>Comparison\nbetween SAP HANA and SAP S\/4 HANA<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"837\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/SAP-S4-HANA.png\" alt=\"Comparison between SAP HANA and SAP S\/4 HANA\" class=\"wp-image-11525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/SAP-S4-HANA.png 837w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/SAP-S4-HANA-150x96.png 150w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/SAP-S4-HANA-300x191.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/SAP-S4-HANA-660x420.png 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 837px) 100vw, 837px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A Cloud Service Provider (CSP) such as ESDS Software Solution offers a special platform to those enterprises that use SAP HANA or SAP S\/4 HANA. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/esds.co.in\/enlight-cloud-hosting\">ESDS eNlight Cloud<\/a><\/strong> is a patented Cloud that acts as a great platform for an SAP landscape that also offers various deployment types, better control over the SAP infrastructure, and best-in-class HANA support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/esds.co.in\/sap-hana-cloud-hosting\">SAP HANA<\/a><\/strong> and SAP S\/S4 HANA are two of the most famous and widely used database and ERP systems.
