The HANA platform also provides libraries for predictive, planning, text processing, spatial, and business analytics – all on the same architecture.
Within this team, the HANA Database Campus is exploring potential future directions, performance optimizations, and novel topics to further advance the HANA platform. The Campus is connected to several of the leading research groups of international universities and regularly publishes papers at conferences such as SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE, EDBT, BTW and others.
The HANA Database Campus also organizes regular Open House Days that provide a venue for researchers, students, and industry practitioners to connect, see e.g. https://youtu.be/ddeAhl8HD08?si=meU5TnG1r0Ee7wQB
