Hardware Acceleration of Compression and Encryption in SAP HANA

Summary: FPGA-based accelerator offloads compression and encryption in SAP HANA, addressing I/O bottlenecks in an in-memory DB. SAP HANA traces show compression-then-encryption pipelines, multiple cipher modes, and FPGA-based decryption with CPU decompression, yielding tunable latency/throughput and storage-cost trade-offs.
