Live Expert Series: What’s New in SAP HANA 2.0 SPS 02

Continuous innovation is a key component of the SAP HANA release strategy.  SAP HANA 2.0 SPS 01 was released in April, 2017.  As such, this SPS 02 release is a minor release that focuses delivering continuous innovation through:

  • Increased automation and better business continuity with enhancements in workload management, system replication, dynamic tiering, and active/active read-enabled.
  • Usability enhancements to improve ease of use, by simplifying data movement modeling, tenant management, encryption, and user group management.
  • Enhanced SAP HANA analytics with Google TensorFlow integration for Machine Learning, and added improvements in Text analysis, Graph and Spatial.
  • Expanded application development flexibility with new GO language driver, expanded SQL/SQL Script, and SAP HANA express edition support for Smart Data Integration..

In addition to the release of SAP HANA 2.0 SPS 02, we are announcing an updated release and maintenance strategy starting with SAP HANA 2.0 SPS 02:

  • SAP HANA 1.0 SPS 12 end of maintenance will be extended until May 2021
  • SAP HANA will have one SPS release per year starting with SAP HANA 2.0 SPS 03 in Q2 2018
  • Starting with SPS 02, each SPS release will have a 2-year maintenance from its RTC date
  • The last SPS of SAP HANA 2.0 will have a 5-year long-term maintenance duration from its RTC date

Learn about the new features and updates introduced in the latest service pack stack (SPS).
