What impact does a conversion to HANA have on

client programs?

• Programs run

predominantly

continue running

problem-free

• Many queries are

considerably faster

• Some queries behave the

same after the conversion

• Isolated queries can have

reduced performance

• Programs must be

verified

• Change to Open SQL if

possible

• DB Hints tested/adjusted

• ADBC access

tested/adjusted

Golden SQL Rules

The golden SQL Rules are just as

applicable in the HANA environment as

in other DB environments

The golden SQL Rules Result set should be kept small

Amount of data should be kept to a minimum

Number of data transfers should be minimised

Secondary indices should be used

Redundant queries should be avoided

Die goldenen SQL Regeln Resultset should be kept small

Amount of data should be kept to a minimum

Number of data transfers should be minimised

Secondary indices should be used

Redundant queries should be avoided

Result set should be kept small

Don‘t use SELECT … CHECK/EXIT … ENDSELECT

WHERE-clause should be as specific as possible

Amount of data should be kept to a

minimum

Avoid using SELECT *

Use aggregate functions (COUNT, SUM, … )

Number of data transfers should

be minimised

Joins and Subselects should be used

Use SELECT for all ENTRIES

INSERT/UPDATE, … FROM TABLE should be used

Secondary indices should be used

Meaningful secondary indices should be

created/implemented

Access of the secondary indices should be tested

Redundant queries should be

avoided Redundant read access should be avoided

Table buffering should be activated

Perform sorting of the bulk data in ABAP

How do I find ABAP (SQL) coding to be potentially

optimized/corrected?

Static checks

• Code Inspector

• ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC)

Monitoring tools in ABAP

• SQL Trace (ST05)

• Runtime Analysis (SAT)

• SQL Monitor (SQLM)*

• SQL Performance Tuning Worklist (SWLT)*

• Coverage Analyzer

• 3rd Party tools

• …

Monitoring tools at DB level

• DB dependant SQL monitoring tools

* Available from 7.40 in Standard

Code Inspector

• Static performance tests • Many SQL relevant tests are available

• SELECT *, Indices, Nested LOOP, …

• Analyses don‘t distinguish, • if it concerns „dead coding“

• if the coding sequence is often used

i.e. if it is relevant for optimization

• Dynamic SQL queries can not be

analysed

SQL Monitor

• Logs all SQL queries

• Implementation in productive

environment is possible with

little/no impact on performance

• Can also be utilized for non-HANA

based SAP Systems • E.g. BEFORE a HANA-conversion

• Available from NW 7.00

SQL Performance Tuning Worklist

• Combines static tests (Code

Inspector, ABAP Test Cockpit)

with related SQL Monitor results

• Ideal combination to pin-point

SQL queries to be optimized
