Spatial engine features not supported in HANA One Rev66

[ericdu]

As it has been announced that the spatial analysis capability has been available in Rev66 for the HANA One on AWS. We are trying to use but just cannot get through, with the error message said the feature is not supported.

Here are the simple SQL statements:

SELECT NEW ST_Point(1,1), NEW ST_Point(3,4) FROM dummy;

SELECT NEW ST_Polygon( 'Polygon(( 0 0, 2 0, 1 2, 0 0 ))' ).ST_Contains( NEW ST_Point( 1, 1 ) ) FROM dummy;

Below is the error returned from HANA:

SAP DBTech JDBC: [257] (at 62): sql syntax error: this feature cannot be supported: line 7 col 11 (at pos 62)

Is there any step or any configuration has to been done before using this feature? Can you kindly help?

Eric,

We believe spatial analysis within HANA was shipped initially to restricted customers. We are working to see how it can be supported within HANA One. Any GA feature in HANA is available within HANA One.

Thanks,

Swapan

Eric,

You probably have the information now. Spatial analysis is available in Rev 66 but in a controlled way. Anyone interested to use this version for spatial analysis is requested to contact us and then the use case is reviewed. Once it is reviewed, instructions will be provided on how to unlock on case by case basis till it is available generally in SPS7.

Thanks,

Swapan
