Get access to SAP HANA, possibly the worlds fastest relational database (and so much more). SAP HANA has been preloaded with a public 1 million song dataset for you to build creative analytical apps using SQL, modeling techniques, Javascript and maybe even their language of choice (if it's Python, R, Java, C#).
GET STARTED NOW!
Step 1: Get the tools:
Client drivers (JDBC, Python, etc.):

Step 2: Connect to the shared 1TB SAP HANA DB (talk to us at the SAP table if you want to setup your own private SAP HANA DB on AWS):
From the HANA Studio enter: hanasvr-04.sapdevcenter.com system#=00
For user/pwd, ask for one at the SAP table.
How to use the pre-loaded data:
You find the data in a schema called MUSIC which is visible from the HANA studio.
Step 3: What to do with the dataset
Whatever you want, find correlations, visualize it, detect songs.
Impress us with your ideas, algorithms, code, anything, everything!
Coolest idea wins!
