Graph Processing Using SAP HANA: A Teaching Case.

The purpose of this teaching case is to develop a hands-on exercise on graph processing using a hybrid system. The paper provides a background on graph databases and how graph processing is supported in a hybrid system, SAP HANA. It also details step-bystep instructions on how to create, modify, and process a graph database using SAP HANA. The teaching case provides instructors with materials that can be readily implemented in classrooms. Because there is no software to purchase or install, there are no costs to the instructor or the school. The assignment can be completed by any student with knowledge of SQL. All the software tools are accessible to any instructor whose school is a member of the SAP University Alliances program, which is free to join.
