Just like if Oracle told you which tables you have the right, or not, to create.
The joke we have internally is that they expect companies to hire expensive SAP clean core experts to evangelize about what clean core is. == hey guys, hire us so we will tell what your dataModel/ontology should be.
Another side comment:
I am not that much in those platform stuff [,more in the enterprise data], but from what i understand, HANA failed to deliver the performances expected, whereas the marketing was MASSIVE.
So people are now a bit skeptical about any new move by SAP.
At my age, I was done doing 24/7 that it would take to get it installed before S/3 licenses expired.
Last I heard the company was going to pay millions more to keep using S/3 because they realized HANA would not be active in time.
I do not know the status now, but I know cost in real $ will be an awful lot. The thing that is interesting with HANA you now need to use an SAP D/B, no more dog fooding using your database (oracle, DB/2 ...) which you sell to customers.
If I was in charge, I would go to SAP and say, unless we get huge relief on the cost, we will move to another ERP. I would have had this search active before looking at HANA.
SAP is giving companies a reason to switch and that’s always a scary moment.

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that this HN account only posts articles from The Register on a daily basis and who's only comment history is providing archive links in a near automated fashion?
Based on their rate of posting and the near synchronized posting times a day, this account just does not feel like a good faith account.
