Geared exclusively towards helping startups master big data to the benefit of their users, the SAP Startup Focus Program has truly gone global since its initiation in March 2012. The in-memory database platform SAP HANA forms the basis of this initiative.
Marcus and Sönke from the SAP Innovation Center will introduce the program and provide technical insights into the unique capabilities of SAP HANA in a hands-on manner.

Critical slide!!!Developing a database to solve these two critical challenges requires a careful design and development from the ground up of every aspect of the database. Relabeling an existing DB “in-memory” doesn’t do it. Carful optimizing for optimal cache utilization and for hundreds of parallel threads is what makes the difference, and allows HNA to reach the speeds I just discussed. I can’t over-emphasize hwo important solving these two challenges is to the performance of SAP HANA.
By accessing data in column-store order, you benefit immensely from simplified table-scan and data pre-caching. This can make all the difference in performance.
