description: 'FOCUS-aligned FinOps shape for SAP HANA Cloud: enterprise database licensed via SAP Store
  / SAP sales contract; consumption visibility is via SAP BTP cockpit and Cloud Management Tools. No public
  unit pricing.'
notes: SAP HANA Cloud pricing is gated behind the SAP Discovery Center / SAP Store and SAP corporate sales;
  the public sap.com pricing page returns HTTP 403 to anonymous fetches and Discovery Center requires
  authenticated session. Pricing is contract-based via SAP Store / sales engagement.
