Introduction
Welcome SAP folks to the HANA Tech Night Mannheim info page.
HANA Tech Night is an evening event, so afterworks. We focuses on topics around the SAP HANA Platform, SAP HANA as a Service and native HANA development. As a result of the change in SAP's direction ("cloud first") since March 2019, we intent to concentrate in addition on cloud based development and new topics like Cloud Application Programing Model (CAPM) and Side-by-Side Extensions which uses SAP HANA as backend service.

| 18:45 | Talk 1 "IRES – Intelligent Ressource Efficiency Solution auf Basis von HANA as a Service auf der SCP – Das Projekt und Lessons Learned." (German language) | Das Projekt IRES – Intelligent Ressource Efficiency Solution für Gerolsteiner startete als Fullstack SAP HANA On-premise Prototyp und am Ende entstand eine fertige Lösung auf der SAP Cloud Platform (SCP) und auf Basis von HANA as a Service (HaaS). Was war unser Weg von der Idee, des Prototypes auf Basis der SAP HANA Platform über die Migration auf die SAP Cloud bis zur fertigen Lösung. Welche Probleme und welche Lessons Learned gab es. | Johannes Lussert | |

| 20:00 | Talk 2 "Hierarchies in the database" | After a few basics about hierarchies and trees, I will show different ways to store them in a database and how they can be processed in SQLScript with SAP HANA. The hierarchy functions that have been available since HANA 2.0 SPS02 are a key focus here. The lecture has a great relation to practical work in the area of SAP BW. However, it is more general, which is why it also applies to all other software developers involved in the processing of hierarchical data. | Jörg Brandeis | Slides |
