Developing Data Models with SAP HANA Cloud

Developing Data Models with SAP HANA Cloud develops practical capability in SAP HANA Cloud data modeling with calculation views, dimensions, measures, joins, unions, hierarchies, SQLScript, security, optimization, deployment, and consumption.

Learners progress through HANA Cloud Modeling Architecture, Database Explorer, HDI, Projects, and Calculation Views; Dimensions, Measures, Joins, Unions, Semantics, Aggregation, and Variables; SQLScript, Table Functions, Hierarchies, Currency Conversion, and Advanced Logic; Model Security, Performance Optimization, Deployment, Consumption, and Lifecycle Governance, connecting SAP behavior with business decisions, controls, and reviewable evidence.

The learning journey follows an analytics engineering team building governed semantic models for operational and executive reporting and produces a practical HANA Cloud semantic model and performance validation pack for implementation and operational use.

What You Will Learn

• Map HANA Cloud modeling architecture across SAP roles, process steps, controls, and evidence.
• Configure HDI projects and calculation views with reliable master data and integration dependencies.
• Execute semantic modeling and aggregation and interpret resulting documents, messages, and analytical evidence.
• Diagnose joins, unions, variables, and measures through targeted checks, traces, logs, and transaction evidence.
• Validate SQLScript and table functions against business rules, authorization boundaries, and acceptance criteria.
• Compare hierarchies and advanced calculations alternatives and explain operational, technical, and governance trade-offs.
• Document model security and optimization using reproducible settings, test results, ownership, and handover notes.
• Improve deployment, consumption, and governance through monitoring, exception handling, measurable controls, and review cycles.
