what's different about SAP HANA cloud?

Kind of a noob question: SAP HANA Cloud calls itself an in-memory cloud platform. What does that mean exactly? Is this because they use their in-memory database?

Yes, HANA Cloud Platform uses the HANA in-memory database as the dbms, so your data is still being held, processed and analyzed from memory, and not disks.
