Integration Details

The implementation uses the SQLAlchemy Dialect for SAP HANA. The SQLAlchemy Dialect for SAP HANA is an open-source project hosted at GitHub that is actively maintained by SAP SE, and is not part of a licensed SAP HANA edition or option. It is provided under the terms of the project license. Please notice that sqlalchemy-hana isn't an official SAP product and isn't covered by SAP support.

Compatibility

Under the hood, SQLAlchemy Dialect for SAP HANA uses the SAP HANA Python Driver hdbcli. Therefore it is compatible with HANA or HANA express versions since HANA SPS 2.
