The HANA Deployment Question — SAP co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe Responds

By Josh Greenbaum on May 3, 2012

The marketing frenzy behind SAP’s HANA in-memory database has engendered a counter-frenzy over the total number of HANA deployments to date. With all the muscle that SAP has been putting behind its new Oracle-killer, the question of whether customers are voting with their dollars has become a key issue. Like many of my fellow analysts, […]

Is SAP HANA Right For You (Now)?

By Dennis Moore on November 17, 2011

As mentioned in my previous post, SAP HANA has been the focus of much of SAP’s technical and marketing communications of late, and has been of great interest to the influencer community (see these excellent posts by John Appleby (@applebyj) and Vijay Vijayasankar (@vijayasankarv) for example).  Many SAP customers with whom I spoke recently are […]

Why is in-memory database important to #SAP ?

Why is in-memory database important to #SAP ?

By Dennis Moore on May 19, 2010

Very busy these days, but wanted to share some thoughts about in-memory database and why it is so important to SAP – and the industry. All of this is just my opinion, and based only on my experience. SAP is really a collection of business processes implemented in software. No shock there. In some cases, […]

SAP + Sybase: Sy-Who?

By Bob Warfield on May 13, 2010

I spent all of about one hour trying to psych myself into writing a post about all the great things SAP could accomplish with their $6B acquisition of Sybase, and then I woke up.  The deal just simply makes no sense, and as fellow Enterprise Irregular Vinnie Mirchandani said: I wish SAP had not done this.
