Who am I?

My name is John Lang, an Aussie from the land down under, with extensive experience in managing and building practical solutions. Originally, a solid foundation in SAP Business Warehouse (BW), HANA Data Modelling and programming; which has evolved into leading project teams to deliver successful outcomes for their clients, customers and user communities.

I started this website because my learning journey constantly involves frustratingly repetitive activities. Every time I had a few hours to tinker and dig deeper into a topic, I’d waste 5-10 minutes getting the required systems and services up and running. This always distracted me from the real goal of being able to quickly test an idea, to see if it would work.

Despite enjoying a good session at the command prompt, there comes a point where I resent this administrator/user experience for wasting my time, every time. There has to be a better way to get the ABAP and HANA services working well on my personal computer, without the hassle of using a terminal window and the need to remember ‘just the right’ sequence of commands, perfectly, every time.

My passion is to find practical solutions that help fellow explorers overcome their challenges with using the MiniSAP Editions of the SAP suite of technologies. This allows a truly curious SAP Enthusiast to get on with the adventure of learning while minimising the time and effort spent on repetative activities.
