HANA Cloud Integration (SAP HCI)

The HANA Cloud Integration is a hosted SAP integration platform used to perform diverse integration scenarios directly from the cloud. The HANA Cloud Integration has the distinct and charming advantage that the customer can start immediately with the implementation of the project. SAP must only provide the system for the customer.

Another benefit of HANA Cloud Integration is that it does not require any adjustments by the customer. A normal web browser is all that is required to access the HCI.

SAP HCI allows non-SAP systems to be integrated with each other via open web services and provided API’s. The strength of HCI exists in integrating SAP systems in hybrid scenarios. For the adaptation or development of current integration processes the Eclipse development environment is needed.

HANA Cloud Integration is the new iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) offer from SAP for Cloud to Cloud and Cloud / In-house Integration.

HCI runs on the SAP´s own hosted cloud platform, allowing the integration of SAP’s cloud offerings with in-house SAP applications by using readymade content packages. These packages can be sourced from SAP’s online content store.
