The SAP Help Portal is the single source of documentation for all SAP software. The URL returns the latest release but earlier versions are accessible as well.

Account required No, but to download material you will need an SAP account (free).

The URLs point to the latest version of the documenation. A drop-down menu enables you to select earlier versions.

The home page organises the information by topic area: installation and update, implementation, administration, development, security, machine learning, etc. To read all the documentation for the SAP HANA Platform, take at least one year off.

SAP HANA options, like SAP HANA streaming analytics or SAP HANA dynamic tiering have their portal and this also applies to SAP HANA Cloud and its predecessor, the SAP HANA Service.

There are learning journeys for all SAP HANA certifications (but none yet for SAP HANA Cloud). Log on with your SAP ID service acocunt to mark your progress.
