Replication Server can connect to an SAP HANA replicate database using
ExpressConnect for SAP HANA Database.
Using ExpressConnect for SAP HANA Database
A Replication Server database connection to SAP HANA database can be:
- secure, in which the connection uses the hdbuserstore key specified in the database
connection, or
- standard, in which the connection uses an entry in the
interfaces file for the host and port number for SAP HANA database.
Note: ExpressConnect for SAP HANA Database supports the same
operating systems as Replication Server except pSeries Linux and is limited on
Linux to support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server
(SLES) 11 only.
Note: ExpressConnect for SAP HANA Database does
not ship with the required SAP HANA Database ODBC drivers. Before using
ExpressConnect for SAP HANA Database, download these libraries from the SAP Support
MarketPlace, and install them after installing Replication Server. See the Replication Server Release Bulletin > Special Installation
Instructions > Installing ODBC Libraries for ExpressConnect for SAP HANA
Database.
