Java
Driver
SAP Hana is a commercial and professional product. However, the hana JDBC driver is available in Maven Central what makes it easy to integrate. All you need is the following maven dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sap.cloud.db.jdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>ngdbc</artifactId>
<version>${hana.driver.version}</version>
</dependency>Of course the version (${hana.driver.version}) needs to be adopted to your needs (Hana installtion in production, e.g. 2.4.64).
For an overview of available driver versions see here.
