SAP HANA Migration covers the methodologies, tools, and processes required to transition legacy database systems (Oracle, DB2, SQL Server) to the SAP HANA in-memory platform. It focuses on the Database Migration Option (DMO) of Software Update Manager (SUM), custom code adaptation, sizing calculations, table export/import strategies, and post-migration validation.

Key characteristics and aspects of SAP HANA Migration include:

  1. SUM DMO One-Step Migration:

    • Combining system upgrade and database migration into a single technical downtime window.
  2. Pre-Migration Sizing & Readiness Checks:

    • Executing Sizing Reports, Readiness Checks, and OS/DB prerequisite validations.
  3. Custom Code Adaptation:

    • Analyzing ABAP custom code using Code Inspector (SCI) and ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) for HANA compatibility.
  4. Classical Heterogeneous Migration:

    • Utilizing R3SETUP/SWPM, R3load tools, and export/import table splitting strategies for non-DMO scenarios.

SAP HANA Migration minimizes system downtime, ensures data integrity, and unlocks in-memory processing speeds.

Before diving into learning SAP HANA Migration, it's highly beneficial to have basic familiarity with foundational SAP modules. Here are the recommended skills:

  1. SAP Basis Administration:

    • Understanding SAP System Architecture, Kernel updates, Transport Management System (TMS), and database tools.
  2. SAP HANA DB Basics:

    • Familiarity with SAP HANA architecture, storage structures, and administrative commands.

Our course covers SUM DMO execution and migration strategies step-by-step with practical hands-on exercises.

Learning SAP HANA Migration provides you with an industry-forward skill set in database transformation projects:

  1. SUM DMO Execution Mastery:

    • Configuring Software Update Manager DMO parameters, table split rules, and bench runs.
  2. Custom Code Remediation:

    • Fixing non-standard SQL, implicit sorting assumptions, and pool/cluster table access in legacy ABAP.
  3. Post-Migration Optimization:

    • Executing SGEN, table row-to-column conversions, and database statistics updates.

By mastering these competencies, you become a certified SAP HANA Migration Consultant qualified to lead complex database modernization programs.
