If You are a R Developer, Then You Must Try SAP HANA for Free.



This is a guest blog from Alvaro Tejada Galindo, my colleague and fellow R and SAP HANA enthusiast.  I am thankful to Alvaro for coming and posting on "AllThingsR".

Are you an R developers? Have ever heard of SAP HANA? Would you like to test SAP HANA for free?

SAP HANA is an In-Memory Database Technology allowing developers to analyze big data in real-time.

Processes that took hours now take seconds due to SAP HANA's power to keep everything on RAM memory.

As announced in SAP Sapphire Now event in Orlando, Florida, SAP HANA is free for developers. You just need to download and install both the SAP HANA Client and the SAP HANA Studio, and create an SAP HANA Server on the Amazon Web Services as described in the following document:
Get your own SAP HANA DB server on Amazon Web Services - http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-28294

Why should this interest you? Easy...SAP HANA is an agent of change bringing speed to its limits and it can also be integrated with R as described in the following blog:

Want to know more about SAP HANA? Read everything you need here: http://developers.sap.com

You're convinced but don't want to pay for the Amazon Web Services? No problem. Just leave a comment including your name, company and email. We will reach you and send you an Amazon Gift Card so you can get started. Of course, your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Of course, we only a limited set of gift cards, so be quick or be out.

    Since you don’t know how to deploy in Cloud, I would suggest you to go ahead with a PaaS service such as BlueMix by IBM or AWS Elastic BeanStalk . Here you can just push your code and specify your database end points and you don’t need to worry about the backend infrastructure. These links might help you with AWS
