SAP Analytics in the Cloud:
The What’s, Why’s, and
How’s
Ashish C. Morzaria, SAP
DISCLAIMER
The What’s, Why’s, and How’s:
Why “Cloud”, and why is “Cloud Analytics” already a mature area?
What does “Cloud Analytics” mean and what are the solutions available?
How do you make the right decisions and how do you implement them?
What else should we cover?
Clearing up “cloud-y” topics, definitions/terms
What SAP is going with cloud
Anything else?

Interestingly, 74% of customers also want their trusted cloud service provider to be able to offer comparable on premise expertise. Another validation of the hybrid model.
SAP Cloud strategy:
Cloud built for business
Analytics solutions from SAP
Available on premise or in the SAP Cloud powered by SAP HANA
Deployment Types
On-Premise:
Traditional deployment on physical or virtualizedhardware where IT manages all systems
Hybrid:
Split-mode deployment where some systems are hosted at aservice provider and connected by VPN. These systems can be managed by IT or through a managed services provider
Cloud:
All enterprise systems are hosted at a service provider and“Cloud-y” Definitions Clarified
Public Cloud:
is where a Service provider owns all of the infrastructureand makes computing resources available to the public over the Internet for free, pay-per-use, or subscription
Private Cloud:
is a cloud-like infrastructure implemented within thecorporate firewall, under the control of the IT department and provides many benefits of cloud systems (metering, self-provisioning, elasticity, etc..)
Virtual Private Cloud:
is a private cloud infrastructure deployed at aPublic Cloud - Definitions
Software as a Service (SaaS):
applications designed for end-users,delivered over the web
Platform as a Service (PaaS):
brings the benefits that SaaS bringsfor applications, but over to the development world. PaaS delivers the set of tools and services designed to enhance, integrate and deploy SaaS applications quickly and efficiently. Equivalent to O/S, Runtime, Middleware, and
Development
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):

SAP Lumira
Design Analyze Visualize Share
SAP Lumira delivers beautiful analytics, allowing you to easily convey and share knowledge.
• Using beautiful and intuitive data visualization
templates, SAP Lumira lets you focus on telling your story.
• The power of sharing visualizations and insights in
the cloud with everyone and without having to sacrifice performance, security, or functionality.
• Combine and mash up all your data with simpler,
HEC Data Centers
Decide the what’s and why’s first:
Do your needs dictate a specific type of solution?
What are the key benefits you are looking to get out of Cloud?
Who are the primary beneficiaries of going to the Cloud?
What are the use cases that can be solved and by which solution?
Then figure out the how:
Deployment model might be obvious (actually should be by this stage )
Determine the security, enterprise integration, data flow, etc. requirements
Who is going to run the project, do the deployment, manage the migration, etc.?
What is the timeline and success critiera?
Where is the budget coming from? Do you have executive support?
SAP or non-SAP hosting?
What type of skills do you have in-house versus require?
What other SAP solutions do you have, and are they going to also migrate to Cloud?
Are you looking for straight IaaS or Managed Hosting?
SAP Partner-hosted or Amazon-hosted?
Are you planning for production or dev/test? (24x7x365 operation or project based?)
Are you looking for any “value-added” services or straight IaaS?
What SLA are you looking for? What level of support?
BI4: Amazon Marketplace or Amazon EC2?
What level of control or administration are you looking for?

Both provide a very similar “user experience”:
Relative parity on features – explore data, visualize, and share stories
New features/new versions synchronized – both release at the same time
Enterprise data access on both – HANA Cloud Integration (HCI) and Data Services
Each has significantly different “deployment experiences”: Lumira Cloud: no HANA license, web-based admin, always up to date
Hosted Lumira Server: own instance, larger sizes, more control, tighter security
Lumira Cloud or Hosted Lumira Server?
IaaS vs SaaS
Infrastructure-as-a Service Software-as-a-Service
Solution Type Hosted on-premise software Targeted solution
Targeted Persona(s) IT / Administrators Managers / Business Users
Deployment Same as on-premise (or vendor supplied) Instantaneous, zero-footprint
Maintenance Customer-supplied Always up to date (vendor)
Support System-level only, rest is customer supplied Application-level, varying degrees by vendor
Enterprise Integration Transparent integration with on-premise Vendor-specific, limited
Security Transparent use of on-premise credentials Web-based, but sometimes can federate
Licensing Perpetual (but increasingly system-based
subscription)
Subscription (usually user-based)
Decision Criteria Cost and time savings, efficiencies, lower up-front costs
