SAP HANA DB Background
Why did we build HANA?
How Did the SAP Use Database Before HANA?
See “The SAP Transaction Model: Know Your Applications”, SIGMOD 2008 Industrial
Talk
 Database was mainly a dumb store …
– Retrieve/Store data (Open SQL, no stored procedures)
– Transaction commit, with locks held very briefly
– Operational utilities
 … because SAP kept the following in the application server:
–
–
–
–
–
Application logic
Business object-level locks
Queued updates
Data buffers
Indexes
With the HANA platform, computation-intensive data-centric operations are moved to
the Database

Yes, DRAM is 125,000
times faster than disk, but
DRAM access is still 10-80
times slower than on-chip
caches

Actual numbers depends on specific hardware.

Problems to solve
 Memory overhead
tx2
…
DATA
 Tx identity: TID vs. CID
– If TID: visibility rules, TCB memory overhead
– If CID: DML time ID, atomic commit, post-commit
 L2/3 cache friendly
– Stay local, avoid dereferencing pointers
 OLAP performance

Outlook
Where is HANA going next?
Continuing Challenges of Emerging Hardware
 Challenge 1: Parallelism: Take advantage of tens, hundreds, thousands of cores
 Challenge 2: Large memories & data locality/NUMA
– Yes, DRAM is 125,000 times faster than disk…
– But DRAM access is still 10-80 times slower than on-chip caches

HANA Platform On-Going Architectural Evolution
Data models
 Flexible schemas, graph functionality, geospatial, time series, historical data,
Big Data, external libraries
Resource and workload management
 Memory, threads, scheduling, admission control, service level management, data aging
Application services
 XS Engine, CDS and River
Continuing performance improvements
 Hardware advances, NUMA, improved modularization and architecture
Cloud and multi-tenancy

Co-innovating the Next Big Wave in Hardware Evolution
Multi-Core and Large “Memory” Footprints
Storage Class Memories / Non-Volatile Memory
 Leverage as DRAM and/or as persistent storage
On-Board DIMMs
 Very high density, byte-addressable
 DRAM like (< 3X) latency and bandwidth; similar endurance
 Compete with disk on cost/bit by 2020
Extreme Speed Network Fabric/Interconnects
 Inter-socket NUMA gets worse while inter-host NUMA gets better
 Inter-socket and Inter-host latencies converge
Exploiting Dark Silicon for Database Hardware Acceleration
 Also exploit GPUs for specific use cases, such as regression analysis
