• Key Concepts: 
  Multiple-container mode is a feature of SAP HANA that allows multiple databases to be hosted on the same system. This mode allows for the separation of databases into different containers, which can be used for different purposes such as development, testing, and production. Each container can have its own set of users and privileges, allowing for greater control over the system.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use multiple-container mode in SAP HANA, you must first create a new container. This can be done through the SAP HANA Studio or the command line interface. Once the container is created, you can then create databases within it and assign users and privileges to each database. You can also configure the system to use multiple containers for different purposes.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using multiple-container mode in SAP HANA, it is important to ensure that each container has its own set of users and privileges. This will help to ensure that each container is secure and that data is not shared between containers. Additionally, it is important to keep track of which databases are in which containers so that you can easily access them when needed.
