sap-sqlscript

SQLScript is SAP HANA's procedural extension to SQL, enabling complex data-intensive logic execution directly within the database layer. It follows the code-to-data paradigm, pushing computation to where data resides rather than moving data to the application layer.

| Declarative | Pure SQL sequences | Converted to data flow graphs, processed in parallel | | Imperative | Control structures (IF, WHILE, FOR) | Processed sequentially, prevents parallel execution |

Anonymous Blocks Single-use logic not stored in the database. Useful for testing and ad-hoc execution.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "write a SQLScript procedure", "create HANA stored procedure", "implement AMDP method", "optimize SQLScript performance", "handle SQLScript exceptions", "debug HANA procedure", "create table function", or mentions SQLScript, SAP HANA procedures, AMDP, EXIT HANDLER, or code-to-data paradigm. Comprehensive SQLScript development guidance for SAP HANA database programming including syntax patterns, built-in functions, exception handling, performance optimization, cursor management, and ABAP Managed Database Procedure (AMDP) integration.
