What are the differences between using DS on BO platform, on NW or on HANA?

[former_member384017]

Hi experts,

for a client we like to introduce Design Studio. Now we want to know if there are differences in functions and features of using Design Studio on a BO platform, on NetWeaver, or on HANA.

I already read the PAM for Design Studio 1.6 and found out that not all functions (e.g. Export to PDF) are available for the different Add-Ons (see picture).

However, I wonder if we have to use these Add-Ons if we are working with HANA? Or can we still use the Design Studio Client and have full functionality with HANA?

Is there a presentation of SAP available which explains the differences, advantages and disadvantages of using Design Studio on the different platforms.

Thank you very much in advance!

Best regards,

Taner

Hi Taner,

I recommend that you deploy your Design Studio applications on the BO BIP Platform because this is the future direction as per the following post:

Also, as of Lumira Studio 2.0 (Design Studio 2.0), planned to be released in late 2016 / early 2017, there will only be a BIP add-on available.  The NetWeaver and HANA Add-ons will no longer be supported. 

When deploying on BIP, you can of course still use HANA data sources.

Regards,

Mustafa.
