LangChain integration for SAP HANA Cloud

About this project

Integrates LangChain with SAP HANA Cloud to make use of vector search, knowledge graph, and further in-database capabilities as part of LLM-driven applications.

Requirements and Setup

Prerequisites

• Python Environment: Ensure you have Python 3.10 or higher installed.
• SAP HANA Cloud: Access to a running SAP HANA Cloud instance.

Installation

Install the LangChain SAP HANA Cloud integration package using pip:

Vectorstore

The HanaDB class is used to connect to SAP HANA Cloud Vector Engine.

SAP HANA Cloud Vector Engine is a vector store fully integrated into the SAP HANA Cloud database.

Important: You can use any embedding class that inherits from langchain_core.embeddings.Embeddings—including HanaInternalEmbeddings, which runs SAP HANA’s VECTOR_EMBEDDING() function internally. See SAP Help for more details.

Self Query Retriever

SAP HANA Cloud Vector Engine also provides a Self Query Retriever implementation using the HanaTranslator Class.

See a usage example.

from langchain_hana import HanaTranslator

Graph

SAP HANA Cloud Knowledge Graph Engine provides support to utilise knowledge graphs through the HanaRdfGraph Class.

Chains

A SparqlQAChain is also provided which can be used with HanaRdfGraph for SPARQL-QA tasks.
