Introduction
❑ SAP HANA (In memory) Database supports a wide variety of interfaces: ODBC (for C/C++ based programs), JDBC (for Java
applications), ODBO (for analytic applications), and internally the Python DBAPI and SQLDBC.
❑ SAP HANA Database Interfaces provide the implementation layer between the SAP HANA Database and the application.
❑ The supported interfaces components provide a database access Application Programming Interface (API) for their respective language
and environment. For some interface components, the API is defined by a standards body or an application.
❑ The HANA ETL certification program is targeted towards certifying the ETL tool’s capability to load data into SAP HANA. Data loads can
happen from non-SAP databases as well as SAP solutions running on non-SAP databases. HANA-ETL certification does not certify the
data extraction from SAP HANA.
