SAP BODS OR HANA?

[Former Member]

Gd evng friends,

Need your input/help in taking right decision.

My self having experience in SAP BO and been placed in a banking domain. i was interested to upgrade or enrich my SAP knowledge on multiple technologies.As a BO developer i am in a big confusion whether to go for SAP BODS or SAP HANA. what may be the current market demand in another 5 years either BO with BODS or BO with HANA?

Please guide me.

Thanks in advance

Hi Murali,

As you know BO, its good to learn HANA.

BODS can be used to load data into HANA while BO can be used for reporting with HANA.

So if you know all three - BO, BODS and HANA - it will be very helpful.

Learning only BODS won't be a very good idea.

Learn HANA and along with it, you can learn BODS too.

Check my blog to start learning HANA:

Hi Murali,

Its a good decision.

I would say get basic knowledge of HANA and then go for BODS.

Later on learn HANA thoroughly.
