Figure 1 Deployment scheme

The description is as follows:

  • VPC network: All SAP HANA nodes are deployed within a VPC, and all ECSs and HANA ECSs in the SAP HANA system belong to the same availability zone (AZ) to ensure security.
  • Public subnet:
    • Network Address Translation (NAT) server ECS: allows you to access HANA ECSs using Secure Shell (SSH).
    • SAP HANA Studio ECS: runs the SAP HANA Studio software. You can use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) or SSH to access the SAP HANA Studio ECS and manage the SAP HANA system.
  • Private subnet:
    • HANA ECS: used for deploying the SAP HANA software.
    • PAS and ASCS ECSs: used to deploy the SAP S/4HANA software and the AS service. Table 1 lists the disks required by the ECS.
