Redress Compliance helps SAP customers manage and optimize their SAP Cloud & SaaS licensing — ensuring cost control, compliance, and contract flexibility.
Introduction
SAP HANA is at the center of SAP’s product strategy.
But SAP HANA licensing is complex — with different models for:
Runtime vs Enterprise Edition
Database Size Limitations
Hardware Restrictions
Indirect Usage Risks
Cloud & On-Prem Licensing Challenges
Without expert guidance, SAP HANA licensing costs can escalate quickly — especially during S/4HANA migrations.
Redress Compliance helps organizations manage SAP HANA licensing across on-premise, cloud, and hybrid environments.
