Download the SAP Hana JDBC driver, copy the JDBC URL into DbSchema, and start designing schemas with ER diagrams — free Community Edition.
A JDBC driver is a Java .jar library that lets applications connect to SAP Hana.
DbSchema uses JDBC to reverse engineer schemas, run SQL, and generate documentation.
Driver files are usually published by the database vendor or an open-source project.
Host, port, database name, and SSL options are passed in a URL starting with jdbc:.
Each SAP Hana driver uses its own syntax — see the connection details below.
SAP HANA is an in-memory relational database and application platform designed for high-speed analytics and transactional workloads. It is the foundation for SAP S/4HANA ERP and is used by enterprises for real-time business intelligence and OLAP over live transactional data.
The driver archive is a zip file. Extract it and load the .jar files using DbSchema's Driver Manager.
DbSchema connects to SAP HANA using the ngdbc JDBC driver and renders complex SAP schemas with column-store and row-store tables in the ER diagram. Use the Schema Documentation feature to generate reference docs for HANA schemas across multiple database containers.
Connect SAP Hana, build your first ER diagram in minutes. No account required.
Get the SAP Hana driver zip below and install DbSchema for Windows, macOS, or Linux.
In DbSchema, open Driver Manager, add the extracted JAR, and paste your JDBC URL.
Reverse engineer SAP Hana, edit the model visually, and publish schema documentation.
After the JDBC driver connects, you get ER diagrams, SQL editor, schema sync, and HTML documentation in one desktop app. Compare DbSchema editions.
Reverse engineer SAP Hana into an interactive diagram and edit structures visually.
Run SQL with autocomplete or compose queries without writing every join by hand.
Export HTML docs your team can browse without installing DbSchema.
