WHY SAP HANA? NEW AND ENHANCED FUNCTIONALITY
WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE IN HANA
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 13
HANA BUSINESS FUNCTION LIBRARIES (BFL) FOR ACCELERATION
For data-intensive applications, ~90% of runtime is spent on transferring data between the database and application server
è Large data volume transferred è Processing only on Application Server
è Optimized processing directly on HANA Platform with BFLs è Minimal data transfer (result only)

WHY IS STORAGE RELEVANT WHEN I HAVE AN IN-MEMORY DATABASE ?
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 15
WHY DOES HANA NEED ALL FLASH STORAGE ?
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 16
SAP HANA – RECOVERY FROM ALL FLASH STORAGE Failover Recovery: Host Auto-Failover
• Storage array integration required (file access and fencing)
• Pure’s Storage Arrays are fully integrated!
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 17
Data reduction Used 500GB TPC-H Data
Data Reduction across Data volumes is – 1.9 to 2.3:1 with 100% column store
• Data in column tables can have a two-fold compression:
• Dictionary compression • Advanced compression
• Row stores are not compressed on SAP HANA®
Data reduction increases as row store size increases.

SAP HANA – Dynamic Tiering (DT)
• Data Temperature Concept
• Reduce hardware (memory) and license cost
• Increase SAP HANA adoption rate
• Easy setup and maintenance
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 22
SAP HANA DT - Performance
• Comparison Oracle vs SAP HANA: ~13.9x better performance*

MODERNISING SAP ECC TODAY - WHY AND HOW ?
© 2016 PURE STORAGE INC. 24
Current Constraints • SAP People Costs High
• System Copy Very Slow
• Data Centre and Power Costs Increasing
