1. Download
SAP HANA Studio on Mac OS. In the SAP Software Download Center, you have access to the installation media and components for SAP HANA. Download SAP HANA, express edition Install your free SAP HANA, express edition You will need a minimum of 8GB RAM for the database server only and 16GB for the database + XS Advanced applications. May 28, 2014 The HANA Studio is designed to be backwards compatible. Therefore you should be able to use Studio Rev81 with a Rev74 server without any problems. I believe that the update site only maintains the latest version.
Download Eclipse 4.3.2 64-bit for Mac Cocoa from http://eclipse.org/downloads/
For this I used the following link, but many other mirrors are available.
2. Extract
Extract the .tar.gz and move into an appropriate location such as inside the Mac Applications folder.
3. Start Eclipse
3.1 You may receive a pop-up becuase it is has been downloaded from an unidentified developer. If so you should go to System Preferences, Security & Privacy, and click on button Open anyway.
3.2 You may also receive a pop to allow incoming connects. Choose Allow if you receive this.
4. Configure Eclipse
From the the Eclipse Menu choose
Eclipse, Preferences
In the Search box type “Update”
5. Add HANA Update Site
You can now add your HANA Update Site, now I know you may not know what this is. It follows the format http://<host>:80<instance_number>
I haven’t configured my own update site but I do know that you can also use the HANA OnDemand Tools site which currently contains Hana Studio Revision 81
Choose Add and then one of the public URLs is
While your here you can also add the HANA Answers plugin too if you like using the URL https://answers.saphana.com/updates
6. Configure Proxy (optional)
If like me you work at SAP and are on the SAP-Corporate network then to connect to this site you will need to configure the proxy.
This is also an Eclipse Preference. You will need to specify it as Manual and the the host is proxy.wdf.sap.corp and the port is 8080.
Beware if you add I proxy you will probably need to restart Eclipse for the change to take effect.
6. Install SAP HANA Tools Software
