02 //Why this course

Why this course.

S4/SAP HANA is proposed as a 75-day SAP HANA-focused program spanning database fundamentals, SQL, SAP HANA Cloud architecture, data modeling, calculation views, SQLScript, data provisioning, application development, security, performance, monitoring and production-oriented operations.

SAP's current learning content for HANA Cloud data modeling covers Business Application Studio, calculation views, joins/unions, dynamic views, hierarchies, SQL-based custom logic, modeling best practices, performance tools, lifecycle management and security. SAP's current provisioning learning path adds remote sources, virtual tables, replication and data transformation with flowgraphs.

SAP's current HANA Cloud documentation also provides dedicated SQLScript, security and administration references. SQLScript extends SQL with data, functional and procedural capabilities; security documentation covers privilege/role inspection; administration documentation covers monitoring and performance-management facilities.
