  I believe that SAP HANA offers JDBC connectivity to their data. With that in mind, a JDBC connection could be setup in Datameer to access this data for import to or export from Datameer.

  Confirming what Joel said: The SAP HANA JDBC connector would be used to connect Datameer to HANA.

  It's also worth knowing that SAP also has a separate connector product for certain Hadoop distributions to seamlessly use Hadoop as cold or "near line" storage (see https://blogs.saphana.com/2015/02/02/big-data-simplified-cost-effective-architecture/ and http://hortonworks.com/blog/sap-and-hortonworks-deliver-hana-hadoop-instant-access-infinite-scale/). MapR also has integration with HANA. The point is mentioning this that that HANA and Hadoop can definitely be leveraged together with SAP's blessing, and their connector might open up an additional avenue for pulling HANA data directly out of Hadoop depending on how SAP's connector option works.
