SAP HANA Integration

We have all of our SAP systems connected to Identity Manager 6.0. Means the BAPI is installed on every system.

Now we want to use SAP HANA technology as the database for the SAP systems.

Are there any experiance in this community with SAP HANA ?

Some of my questions:

  • Is Identity Manager able to manage directly SAP HANA users/permissions
  • How to connect?
  • Could we still use the standard BAPI for connecting a SAP system based on HANA?

Thanks a lot for any useful comment :-)

  • Hi,


    we implemented the HANA connector based on UNS.B. On our JobServer we have installed the HANA ODBC drivers and use this for the connection to the HANA DB. 

    On the HANA we have developed our own stored procedures which are responsible to generate/change/delete a user account, to assign / remove a role to/from a user. The synch is using defined HANA views to get all user / roles and user / role assignement. with this szenario we tried to seperate HANA from IAM releases which was only to some degree sucessfull.

    On issue you have to take care is that the HANA ODBC driver is heavily depending on the current release of the HANA system. We recognices some incompatibilities e.g. with HANA release 8 and HANA v9. so you always have to test.


    If you are interesed in we could share some dev docu or co a Lynch meeting (or something ...)
