Bridging Python and SAP HANA: Inside the sqlalchemy-hana Open-Source DialectpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 data-track session (DAT-21) in which one of the maintainers of sqlalchemy-hana, the open-source SQLAlchemy dialect published in SAP's GitHub organisation, opens up what sits between Python and SAP HANASAP HANASAP’s relational database platform, which stores application data and executes SQL and SQLScript in the database, available on-premise and as the managed service SAP HANA Cloud.sap official, btp. It walks the five dialect classes that render statements, types, DDL, identifiers and sequences, and the HANA specifics they absorb: the FROM DUMMY a bare SELECT needs, a limit injected when only an offset is given, string compiled to NVARCHAR, and quoted case-sensitive identifiers against Python's lowercase. The rest covers schema migrations with Alembic on HANA's transactional DDL, the recently added async support and vector types, and that HANA Cloud and HANA 2 are supported while HANA 1 is not.Database connectors
Building your knowledge graph on SAP HANA CloudpublishedDevtoberfest 2026 session DAT-11, in which two enterprise architects explain what a knowledge graph is and then build one on SAP HANA CloudSAP HANA CloudThe managed database under most of this: CAP's default target, the store Datasphere and Analytics Cloud sit on, and a service with plans and components.sap official, btp. The first half sets the join across three relational tables against an ontology of classes and predicates, the subject-predicate-object triple written as a turtle file, and a SPARQL query over it, and argues that the chain of relationships is what makes a recommendation traceable back to its reasons. The demo, taken from a Discovery Center mission, curates the ontology and the RDF files for an accounts receivable scenario in VS Code, ingests the triples into HANA Cloud with SQL and walks the resulting graph outward from a customer; that is the graph, spatial and document dataGraph, spatial and document dataStoring and querying data that is not plain rows, such as a network of relationships, a geometry or a JSON document, in the database that already holds the rows instead of in a separate store per model. Free-text search over entities is search; similarity over embeddings is retrieval-augmented generation.SAP only edge. It closes by separating three things that share the name: the HANA Cloud knowledge graph engine, SAP Knowledge Graph as the data, and the knowledge graph in SAP Business Data CloudSAP Business Data CloudSAP's umbrella over the data estate: installed intelligent content and data products, a governed catalog they are published through, and a path out to SAP Databricks.sap official, btp.Database connectors

The session first takes an agent apart into its LLM, its tools, its memory and the loop between them, then stacks the Predictive Analysis Library under the hana-ml Python wrapper and that under the HANA AI toolkit, whose tools an agent calls from plain English in a notebook to preview a sales refunds table, split it into train and predict tables, run a time-series check and train an AutoML forecast, keeping what it decided in Markdown memory files. That is the agent toolingAgent toolingBuilding an agent into your own application — the tools it may call, the state it keeps between turns, and the framework it runs in. Distinct from MCP servers, which expose an application to somebody else's agent, and from agent guidance, which is knowledge handed to a coding agent.SAP and community, unassessed edge; the same toolkit is then started as an MCP server over stdio and over streamable HTTP and reached from a coding agent and from Joule Work's desktop, which is where the live demo partly fails and the failure is shown.Database connectors

It also states the current limits: one default domain until custom domains and subdomains arrive, auto-approved requests for space copies, transports and intelligent content, stewards who cannot yet revoke an active agreement, and an install step still done by hand after approval.Cataloguing and lineage

It covers configuring the receiver adapter's upload operation (directory, object name, content type, and override, ignore or fail handling for an existing file) and the sender adapter's read, including post-processing to archive, delete or keep the object after an iFlow fetches it.Object storage

Data federationfacets, core coverage, name revisedThe concern this node holds is what capire calls data federation: making data that lives in another system available as if it were local, by federating the query, by copying the rows, or by caching what was read. Replication is one of the three strategies, and the facets declared on 2026-09-27 compare the options on exactly that axis, so a node named after one strategy read as if the other two were elsewhere. The id stays, as the 2026-09-13 rename kept it: it is the stable ref every record, edge and link carries. BTP keeps its own framing name, Master data integration. Proposed by the capire audit of 2026-09-27; decided by the maintainer.Data federation
