The relational model of SAP HANA Live is built using which type of views?

The relational model of SAP HANA Live is fundamentally structured using calculation views of the data category cube without a star join. This approach allows for effective data modeling where complex logic and calculations can be performed without being limited by the structure of a star schema.

Calculation views facilitate the implementation of sophisticated business logic and can encompass multiple data sources and operations, leading to a flexible and efficient analytics environment. By employing calculation views of the data category cube, users can perform aggregated calculations and derive insights while ensuring that the model maintains a clear structure, even in the absence of a star join.

Utilizing this approach caters specifically to the needs of real-time data analysis, as it enables the dynamic generation of results based on user queries without being constrained to fixed data schemas. The adaptability and performance associated with calculation views make them particularly suitable for the relational model within SAP HANA Live, aligning with the principles of high-performance analytics.
