This tutorial is part of a mission, in which you will learn in a hands-on, end-to-end setting how to use SAP HANA Cloud, SAP HANA database. SAP offers two free options to use SAP HANA Cloud. This tutorial covers the first option, which is using the SAP HANA Cloud trial. The trial allows you to use SAP HANA Cloud in a test environment and does not require payment details to sign up, whereas the free tier option can be easily upgraded to a paid version but does require payment details. If you would like to learn more about the second option of using SAP HANA Cloud free tier, proceed to the [next tutorial](hana-cloud-mission-trial-1-ft).

### Add SAP HANA Cloud to an existing SAP BTP trial account

84
-
>If you have an existing SAP BTP trial account, this section will walk you through adding entitlements to your SAP BTP account so you can start using the appropriate services. You can skip this step if you have signed up for the SAP HANA Cloud trial as your account will already have the required entitlements.
85
-
86
-
1. In the SAP BTP cockpit, click on your **subaccount**.
87
-
88
-
2. Then click on **Entitlements** on the left-hand side menu. Here you can see all the services associated with your account.
89
-
90
-
91
-
92
-
3. Make sure you have entitlements for the services (and service plans) listed here:
93
-
94
-
- SAP HANA Cloud: `hana`, `hana-cloud-connection`, and `relational-data-lake`
95
-
96
-
- SAP HANA Schemas & HDI Containers: `hdi-shared`, `schema`, and `securestore`
97
-
98
-
If you do not have any of the entitlements above, you need to add them to your account. To do that, click on **Configure Entitlements** on the top right-hand corner of the screen.
6. Select the missing entitlements by checking the boxes.
111
-
112
-
- SAP HANA Cloud: `hana`, `hana-cloud-connection`, and `relational-data-lake`
113
-

115

You will see two options in the list related to Schemas and HDI containers. Please make sure to select the one that **does not** say **`(trial)`**, as you can see on the screenshot below.
117
-
118
-
> The reason not to select the **SAP HANA Schemas & HDI Containers (trial)** entitlement is that it is made for a trial of *SAP HANA Service*, not SAP HANA Cloud.
7. Click on **Add X service Plans**, where X is the amount of services you want to add.

### Get to know SAP BTP cockpit
135
-
136
-
SAP BTP cockpit is a web-based interface used to manage SAP cloud applications, such as SAP HANA Cloud. This is where you can manage your SAP Business Technology Platform account and users as well as create new instances whenever necessary.
137
-
138
-
139
-
140
-
When you first access your trial account, you will see the **Trial Home Page**.
141
-
142
-
> In a production environment, you do not see the Trial Home Page.
143
-
144
-
This is where you can enter your account but also find helpful resources to get to know the SAP BTP cockpit in detail:
145
-
146
-
- Take the virtual tour once you start your trial for the first time.
147
-
148
-
149
-
150
-
There is also some built-in functionality that can help you with using SAP BTP Cockpit and provide you with more information:
151
-
152
-
- Use the **Help** button at the top right-hand corner of the screen once you are logged in. This will open a **Help Topics** pane where areas that you can get help custom to the page will appear, as well as embedded links to guided answers and documentation.
153

154
-
155
-

### Understand Accounts, Directories, Subaccounts, and Spaces
164
-
165
-
Your account on SAP Business Technology Platform is called a **global account**. As the administrator, you will have full control of your global account and be able to create directories, subaccounts, spaces, and instances. Subaccounts are a smaller part of your global account. Directories group subaccounts under the global account. Under subaccounts are spaces, in which your instances are located.
166
-
167
-
168
-
169
-
Below you can see a simplified diagram of a global account in SAP BTP cockpit with different subaccounts and spaces that each contain SAP HANA database and data lake instances. Of course, once you use SAP HANA Cloud, you will most likely have many more databases, spaces, subaccounts and maybe even global accounts. These levels will then help you keep everything neat and organized.

174

>
175
-
> **Directories**: Directories group subaccounts into a folder and are useful to organize them. For example, if your subaccounts are geographical regions such as countries, your directories could be continents.
176
-
>
177
-
> **Subaccounts**: Subaccounts are a smaller part of your global account. For example, if your global account is your whole organization, your subaccounts could be either your geographical regions or specific departments, depending on what your internal structure requires.
178
-
>
179
-
> **Spaces**: Under subaccounts are spaces. These can be, for example, lines of business, such as product management, development, or operations.
180
-
>
181
-
> In the context of SAP HANA Cloud, this means that each space within each subaccount will have their own SAP HANA Cloud area. Spaces are separate from one another, and so are all the databases and data lakes existing under the subaccount. This is important to keep in mind with regards to security, members and data management.
182
-
>
183
-
> **Instances**: Within your space, you can create and access instances of SAP HANA Cloud, SAP HANA database, and SAP HANA Cloud, data lake.
