Single-Node Scenario Where HA Is Not Required

Figure 1 shows the single-node scenario where HA is not required.

Figure 1 Single-node scenario where HA is not required

The concepts involved in the preceding figures are as follows:

  • VPC network: All SAP HANA nodes are deployed within a VPC network, and all nodes in the HANA system belong to the same AZ to ensure network security.
  • Public subnet:
    • Network Address Translation (NAT) instance ECS: allows you to access SAP HANA nodes using SSH.
    • SAP HANA Studio ECS: runs the SAP HANA Studio software. You can use RDP or SSH to access the SAP HANA Studio ECS and manage the SAP HANA system.
  • Private subnet:
    SAP HANA node: used for deploying the SAP HANA software. An SAP HANA server has the following disks attached:
    • OS disk: provides the directory for installing the OS.
    • Data volume: periodically stores the data transmitted from the SAP HANA IMDB (a database running in high-performance memory). The period is 5 minutes by default.
    • Log volume: stores the data triggered by an event. When an event, for example, a record or a batch of records are updated, is triggered for the server IMDB, the system will write the latest IMDB data into the log volume.
    • Shared volume: stores the SAP HANA installation software and SAP HANA database log files.
    • Backup volume: stores SAP HANA database backup files.
    • Usr/sap: used to mount to the /usr/sap directory.
    • Swap volume: Linux swap space.
