Deployment Guidance
Amazon works in collaboration with SUSE to support SAP HANA deployments on Amazon. Amazon provides detailed guidance on configuring EC2 instances and Amazon-specific resources to meet SAP HANA requirements. While we strive to consolidate documentation to simplify the user experience, the underlying software components and resources owned by Pacemaker remain under the purview of the software vendor for development and support.

What is Angi?
SAPHanaSR-angi (SAP HANA SR - Advanced Next Generation Interface) is the latest unified high availability solution for managing SAP HANA System Replication in Pacemaker clusters, supported on SLES-for-SAP 15 SP4 and newer. The solution consolidates the management of both scale-up and scale-out deployments into a single package and introduces technical improvements such as faster takeover times during filesystem failures, unresponsive HANA instances, and node failures in scale-out configurations.
This document covers new implementations using SAPHanaSR-angi. For migrations from existing SAPHanaSR or SAPHanaSR-ScaleOut installations to SAPHanaSR-angi, refer to the SUSE documentation for detailed upgrade procedures.
