Introducing hands-on video tutorials for XS Advanced

[pmugglestone]

Hi,

You already heard about SAP HANA extended application services (XS) advanced model and how it represents an evolution of the application server architecture within SAP HANA by building upon the strengths (and expanding the scope) of XS classic model?

You've likely already read the excellent blogs about this exciting new capability posted recently by thomas.jung?

So you're now itching to get started and "have a play" with XS Advanced - but aren't quite sure where to start?

As you probably know, the SAP HANA Academy produce hands-on video tutorials for all things HANA (as well as HCP and sometimes beyond).

I'd like to introduce our first playlist to cover XS Advanced. With almost two hours of content, the tutorials cover everything from a chalkboard overview of the new architecture, to downloading and installing the developer client tools, to writing and deploying example XS Advanced applications. The series covers SAP HANA Deployment Infrastructure (HDI), user authentication, and how to develop and deploy server side business logic using xsjs as well as creating OData services.
