SAP HANA has been named a leader among in-memory database platforms by Forrester Research in their latest independent report. Out of 11 major vendors analyzed, SAP HANA ranked the highest in the crucial Current Offering and Strategy categories. The Forrester Wave also placed SAP HANA among the top contenders for Market Presence.

“SAP’s razor-sharp focus on in-memory technology is paying off,” wrote Noel Yuhanna, Forrester’s principal analyst serving enterprise architecture professionals, in the report. This prestigious designation validates SAP’s pioneering role in driving widespread in-memory computing adoption. According to the report, SAP HANA stood apart from competitors in several key areas:
