EXPLORING SAP UPGRADE OPTIONS
When considering an upgrade for your SAP software, there are three main types to choose from, each tailored to meet specific business needs and objectives.
Version Upgrade (Migration)
Database Upgrade (Conversion)
SAP Solution Upgrade (Patch)
The most common example of version upgrade is the ECC to S/4HANA Migration. This is when companies that already have the ECC (ERP Central Component) database of SAP implemented, want to migrate to the S/4HANA platform.
S/4HANA is the latest generation of SAP, which runs on the columnar database, known as the HANA database. This means that with the version upgrade from ECC, the customers also get the HANA database installed.
The Migrating from SAP ECC to the HANA database SAP HANA 1.0 with TMC, will provide numerous benefits to the customers, leveraging the power and advanced capabilities of the HANA in-memory computing platform. Some of the benefits clients can expect are;

The Database Upgrade can be acquired once you already have the S/4HANA version installed. The HANA database has 2 versions, HANA DB 1.0, and SAP HANA 2.0.
