Hi there,
I started out (as a developer) with a SAP HANA One on Suse image (rev 52). After about a 6 weeks of dev usage for some reason the volumes wouldn't mount and I terminated the image. I was in mid stream experimenting with Text and SmallText columns and text search capabilities.
To reduce my costs during this learning phase I created a new 'free' developer image, I go to create a table and lo and behold there is no Text or SmallText column type listed in Hana Studio for a column store table. Is this a restriction in the developer edition?
Also I can't open a browser window and navigate to a server admin page to start and stop my database. (I didn't reboot yet after changes my hosts file) Is this also a difference between the editions?
I also notice that my Hana One Platform had a demo schema loaded with example data. What other differences are there?
I my gosh, I just noticed that the developer edition I installed is rev 48. It looks like I reverted to an older release!
Man, talk about confusing and wasting time and effort...
What I really wanted was a smaller image that I can use for development and learning that is current and cost effective....
