As a part of (our University unit  bco6181  ) six minutes presentation I connected SAP Visual Intelligence to SAP HANA Analytic view and show measure(s) on graph. I demonstrated the whole thing in the class successfully but there were certain things that I could show in presentation. For example, from creating schema to creating and loading tables with data (from csv files).  It was another excited thing that I did with SAP Hana and this time l learnt even more about SAP technology. I am going to share my experience and data that I used. Cloud Setup: This time I used the same setup which I discussed in my previous blog  here  and as shown below. I really did not need DC for this exercise as I connected to HANA with database user. However, I used it for DNS (Domain Name Services) and for logging on to CLIENT using Windows Domain user. SAP Hana Instance - HANADB - Rev 48 Windows Server 2008 R2 - DC (Domain Controller) - and hosted AD (Active Direct...

PURPOSE I had been keeping SAP Hana instance for few months on AWS (Amazon Web Services). I never did any thing excited with it until I was asked to demonstrate something for an University assingment (bco6181) . There, I just thought I could try integrating SAP Hana instance with Windows Active Directory for single sign on. Unfortunately, I was not successful but I completed the configuration to most extent. It was a good experience and an effort that I can not forget. Note: Please note I followed following guide to perform these steps http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/303bf0c3-ad5c-3010-df84-882747341e88?overridelayout=true INFRASTRUCTURE My infrastructure included following SAP HANA Instance - HANA - Rev 48 Windows Server 2008 R2 - DC (Domain Controller) - and hosted AD (Active Directory) services. Windows Server 2008 R2 - CLIENT  - and SAP Hana studio installed. One VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) - 10.0.0.0/24 - Above machines (inst...

In this blog, I have discussed the root cause of the issue where users are experiencing very slow network speed when connecting to network drive (mapping to DFS root namespace). Please note that this finding is totally based on our IT setup and it may not be the reason/cause for your issue. Alright, we wanted to do following: Virtualize and upgrade file servers (DFS) to Windows Server 2008 Standard R2 Virtualize and upgrade one physical 2003 domain controllers to Windows Server 2008 Standard R2 In this process, we created new domain controller and for some reason we needed to shut it down. So we shut it down. Next day, some users running Windows XP started to experience delays when they click on network drive letter (for example Z:\). It started to take time and sometime Windows Explorer stuck/hang before it populate all the folders. We tried few things together with my Manager to fix the issue but we could not solve the problem. Later, we read few articles/blogs about DFS archit...

In this blog, I have tried to explain how BIonDemand can be used to assist with your decision making. Please note that this is not guide to tell you how to use BIonDemand. I am part time student of "Master of Business in ERP Systems" and three weeks ago I started great unit "ERP Applications". Just google "BCO6181" and you will find us. Now, in this unit we were exposed to  BIonDemand . We were advised to think of data, a question and then use this beautiful tool to find the answer. I tried various sample data to learn this tool first. Since the birth of my second child on 4th March I have been looking for a new DSLR camera. Now, this is my first DSLR camera so I only needed entry level camera. So I started to read and make some nice excel sheet with the data. Hang on, excel sheet with data. There we go, I can use this excel sheet to assist me finding good entry level camera. So I chose following three vendors and metrics. Model Canon Nikon So...
