• Key Concepts: 
  Single-container mode is a feature of SAP HANA that allows the entire database to be stored in a single container. This container can be either a physical or virtual machine, and it can be used to store both the data and the application logic. This mode of operation is beneficial for organizations that need to quickly deploy and manage their databases, as it eliminates the need for multiple containers. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use single-container mode, you must first install SAP HANA on a physical or virtual machine. Once installed, you can configure the database to run in single-container mode. This will allow all of the data and application logic to be stored in a single container, which can then be managed from a single interface. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using single-container mode, it is important to ensure that the container is properly sized for the amount of data and application logic that will be stored in it. If the container is too small, performance may suffer. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the container is properly secured, as any unauthorized access could lead to data loss or corruption.
