SapMachine and SAP HANA Studio
last changed: 18th of May 2022
SapMachine is an OpenJDK released maintained and supported by SAP.
You can replace the in-build JAVA Support from the SAP HANA Studio with SapMachine.
You can use this to replace any existing JAVA (owned by Oracle) deliveries on you local Frontend or Terminal Server. Download the 64-Bit binaries either as
- zip archive (allows you own location)
- installation packages
Make sure that you adapt the Environment of your Frontend for SapMachine as well, like
- JAVA_HOME
- SAP_JRE8_64
- Path
Edit the File C:\Program Files\SAP\hdbstudio\hdbstudio.ini
And replace the -vm parameter with the SapMachine

Note 2796898 – New and changed features in SAP GUI for Windows 7.70
If you are using SAP GUI 7.70 together with the SAP HANA Studio, you probably encountered that the Internet Explore 11 is not supported anymore. So you have to switch at both locations (GUI and Studio/Eclipse) to the Microsoft Edge (based on Chromium) Support.

Can I ask you to add a tag for ABAP Development, since it's relevant to ADT as well.

Done 🙂
Hi Roland Kramer,
thanks for the good post. One question (on Eclipse/ADT, however could be interesting for HANA studio as well). Is there any way to check, which version of java is really used - after firing up Eclipse (besides set java)?
best regards, Daniel
Hello Daniel Purucker
beside what is defined in the studio.ini and the check of the command line "java -version", you can check the Studio Preferences for "Java JDK"
Best Regards Roland
Hi Roland Kramer,
Nice blog!
Now we can use sapmachine17 and ZGC to speed up Eclipse , just change file(hana.ini or eclipse.ini) ,like this :
