Single and Multi-Tenancy

To achieve the highest level of operational efficiency, the data of multiple customers can be consolidated onto a single HANA server. Such consolidation is key when HANA is provisioned in an on-demand setting, a service which SAP plans to provide in the future. Multi-tenancy allows making HANA accessible for smaller customers at lower cost, as a benefit from the consolidation.
Already today HANA is equipped with the technology to enable such consolidation while ensuring that no critical resources are contending between the customers sharing a server and while ensuring a reliant and highly-available storage of the customers data at the hosting site.
