SAP HANA Studio

SAP HANA Studio facilitates replication, modeling, and administration of data in the SAP HANA database. SAP HANA Studio is an Eclipse-based data modeling platform. You can access SAP HANA Studio via Start Menu > SAP in-memory computing > Studio.

The SAP HANA Studio is organized based on various perspectives. Perspectives are predefined, delivered user interface (UI) layouts customized based on type of use. For example, the Administration Console is the perspective used for administrating loads and systems, whereas the Information Modeler perspective is used for data modeling and provisioning.

The default perspective is the Administration Console. You can change the perspective by using the menu option Window > Open Perspective (Figure 1).

 Before you start building models, you need to configure SAP HANA Studio to the SAP HANA Server. You can add a system via the context menu by right-clicking in the Navigation pane on the left of the screen and choosing Add System (Figure 2).
