Hi Friends,
In this blog, we are going to see the meaning of terms.
1: SPS
2: SP
3: Revision
1: New capabilities are only introduced once a year, every time a new SAP HANA Support Package Stack (SPS) is released.
2: For easier handling, the numbering of SAP HANA SPS and Revisions had been aligned.
Revision 000 for example refers to the first SAP HANA Revision which contains HANA 2.0 SPS 00 related capabilities.
SPS
A " Support Package Stack ( SPS)" is the SAP HANA PLATFORM release that bundles new features and functions thru a set of Component Revisions and SPs being entirely validated and provided as single media for consumption.
SP
All other parts of the SAP HANA platform become visible on SAP Service Marketplace as “Support Packages (SP)”.
REVISION
The term “Revision” refers to a maintenance package of an SAP HANA core component (SAP HANA Database, Studio, Clients, AFLs, SDA, HWCC tool).
Each Revision and Support Package has its own release cycle and can be installed/upgraded separately.
