Last week Haythem OUESLATI announced as part of his blog “SAP HANA Training and Certification Program 2016? how the E_HANAINS151 - SAP Certified Technology Specialist - SAP HANA Installation will probably be retired. What exactly does this mean to suit your needs?

Everbody knows the SAP HANA Technology certification portfolio currently includes these training certifications:

C_HANATEC_11 - SAP Certified Technology Associate - SAP HANA SPS11:

The prerequisites with this exam are the courses HA200, HA240 and HA250.

E_HANAINS151 - SAP Certified Technology Specialist - SAP HANA Installation:

The prerequisites for this exam include the courses HA200, self-study on the installation boost guides to the SAP HANA database, Studio and client software and also the chapters about the SAP HANA Lifecycle Management in the SAP HANA Administration guide.

As of the certification C_HANATEC_11, the certification exam includes installation, update and troubleshooting topics. So there is an overlap within the two certifications. To produce this situation clearer to the SAP HANA consultants and administrators the certification E_HANAINS151 will likely be retired as announced inside the blog Haythem Oueslati.

What makes this change crucial that you me?

There's a chance you're already SAP HANA Installation certified, our studying for this exam. So now will be the facts:

E_HANAINS151 will likely be retired by the end of 2016. At the same time the certification can still be booked.

After the retirement in the E_HANAINS151 exam the C_HANATEC_11 (or maybe more) will be considered the replacement exam.

The C_HANATEC_13 will combine the HANATEC and HANAINS certifications. Which means when you've got passed C_HANATEC_13 you are also permitted to perform SAP HANA installations.

What must i study to pass the C_HANATEC_11 (or maybe more)?

In order to be able to pass the C_HANATEC_11 and carry out a successful SAP HANA installations in a SAP HANA Tailored Datacenter Integration (TDI) environment you need to read the following materials:

HA100 - SAP HANA Introduction

HA200 - SAP HANA Installation and Administration

HA240 - SAP HANA Authorizations, Scenarios & Security Requirements

HA250 - Migration to SAP HANA Using the Database Migration Option (DMO)

The SAP HANA installation and update guides (SAP HANA database, SAP HANA studio and SAP HANA client software)

The SAP HANA Lifecycle Management chapters inside the SAP HANA Administration guide

Which SAP HANA version is associated with which exam?

For all you mentioned training courses and extra self-study materials you'll want to study the correct SAP HANA materials. To make certain that you always determine what SAP HANA version is employed for that certification exam quality code includes the SAP HANA SPS number (C_HANATEC_xx means SAP HANA SPSXX). If you decide to registered for your C_HANATEC_11 you will need to examine the SAP HANA SPS11 materials.

This is an overview around the current status of the SAP HANA certifications:

C_HANATEC141 => SAP HANA SPS07 (will be retired on 30.06.2016)

C_HANATEC142 => SAP HANA SPS08 (The installation certification E_HANAINS151 still required)

C_HANATEC151 => SAP HANA SPS09 (The installation certification E_HANAINS151 still required)

C_HANATEC_10 => SAP HANA SPS10 (The installation certification E_HANAINS151 still required)

C_HANATEC_11 => SAP HANA SPS11 (The installation certification E_HANAINS151 still available)

C_HANATEC_12* => SAP HANA SPS12 (The installation certification E_HANAINS151 still available)

C_HANATEC_13* => SAP HANA SPS13 (E_HANAINS151 replaced by C_HANATEC_13)

* Disclaimer: The certification exams C_HANATEC_12 and C_HANATEC_13 are mentioned as an example here as they just don't exist yet

The complete listing of valid certifications is found here.

What's the advantage for me personally?

Before C_HANATEC_13 you possessed to possess a valid C_HANATEC_xx certification before you decide to could enroll for your E_HANAINS151 exam, so you needed to sit both exams. Using the retirement of E_HANAINS151 following 2016 you simply need to sit merely one exam and you'll become SAP HANA Administration and SAP HANA Installation certified. Be aware that this only applies at the time of C_HANATEC_11 or newer.

For consultants and admins that are already C_HANATECxxx and E_HANAINSxxx certified, they could now update both their certifications at once to take a seat the test C_HANATEC_11 (or older).
