Abstract
Recent advances in hardware and software technologies have enabled us to re-think how we architect databases to meet the demands of today´s information systems. However, this makes existing performance evaluation metrics obsolete. In this paper, I describe SAP HANA a novel, powerful database platform that leverages the availability of large main memory and massively parallel processors. Based on this, I propose a new, multi-dimensional performance metric that better reflects the value expected from today´s complex information systems.
