Explanation

Migrating from SQL Server to SAP HANA is a heterogeneous database migration (different source and target databases), which requires specific tools. SAP HANA classical migration (A) is a standard heterogeneous migration approach that exports data from the source system and imports it into a new HANA system, supporting a database change. SAP SUM DMO with System Move (C) simultaneously upgrades SAP software, migrates the database to HANA, and moves the system to new infrastructure (AWS), making it ideal for this scenario. SAP HANA system replication (B) only works between HANA-to-HANA systems. Backup and restore (D) only works for HANA-to-HANA. Homogeneous system copy (E) requires the same OS and database type and cannot change the database.
