Lesson 1
Explaining, how the Recent Rebranding
Displays in this Material

LESSON OBJECTIVES
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
● Explaining, how the recent rebranding displays in this material

Rebranding
Rebranding Information
Throughout the text and the figures, rebranding references shall be understood as follows:
All existing SAP Cloud Platform services are/are being renamed with the ‘SAP’ branding. On
the product level, the SAP Cloud Platform services are organized into two suites, renamed to:
SAP Integration Suite and SAP Extension Suite.
Background
SAP Cloud Platform evolves
Our cloud platform is one of the core pillars powering SAP Business Technology Platform
(SAP BTP) and has become a key element within our broader platform offering, rather than a
stand-alone offering. Its strong integration and extension capabilities are now available as
services that run on SAP BTP. These capabilities are now called SAP Integration Suite and
SAP Extension Suite.
Application development and integration
Application development and integration capabilities, previously available in SAP Cloud
Platform, are now cloud services that run on SAP BTP – providing users with a cloud
environment to develop, manage, extend, and deliver applications.
Enterprise application integration
SAP Integration Suite, an integration platform as a service (iPaaS), enables users to
implement data, application, API, and process integration projects involving any combination
of cloud-resident and on-premise end points.
Application development and extensions
SAP Extension Suite services can help you build and enhance your solutions, optimize your
business processes, and create an engaging digital experience. With more than 80 services
available, SAP can help you boost development productivity and efficiency.
SAP Integration Suite and SAP Extension Suite are powering SAP Business Technology
Platform
As a pivotal part of SAP’s Business Technology Platform portfolio, SAP Integration Suite and
SAP Extension Suite are the integration, extension, and innovative building of business
applications with agility, flexibility, and choice, formerly known as SAP Cloud Platform

Unit 1: About this Handbook

Integration and SAP Cloud Platform . It lets customers integrate, extend, and innovate their
data, processes, and apps, and enables partners to bring unlimited innovation to the
ecosystem:

SAP Integration Suite

Provides ready-built integration technology and content for SAP and non-SAP, for cloud
and hybrid architectures, which help our customers to integrate everything, everywhere,
by supporting a wide variety of synergic integration approaches.
SAP Extension Suite
Provides an cohesive set of services and tools to create and run processes and
applications that integrate easily and securely with any SAP system, helping developers
and process experts to be efficient, and to create the best possible digital experiences
across all channels.
Multicloud Readiness
While the SAP Integration & Extension Suites focus on solving dedicated business needs,
the underlying foundation offers a secure, multicloud, future-proof underpinning that
embraces all major hyper-scaler infrastructures and cloud-based, native technologies.

Frequently asked Questions

What is happening with the SAP Cloud Platform brand?
We are removing SAP Cloud Platform as a brand name. However, the technical capabilities of
SAP Cloud Platform will remain as important as ever. Concretely, this means the services
under the former SAP Cloud Platform brand continue to exist, just without “Cloud Platform”
in the name. For example, “SAP Workflow Management” and “SAP Enterprise Messaging."
How does cloud platform align with SAP Business Technology Platform?
As SAP Business Technology Platform has progressed, we have found it better for our
customers to align our integration and extension capabilities to one platform. Our integration
and extension capabilities are key to powering SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).
These capabilities, along with database and data management, analytics, and intelligent
technologies, are critically important components of our holistic platform that complement
SAP and third-party applications to deliver agile and comprehensive digital transformation in
the cloud.
What happens to our existing customers that are using SAP Cloud Platform?
We are sunsetting SAP Cloud Platform as a brand name; however, the integration and
extension capabilities of SAP Cloud Platform will continue to be available as products and
services under SAP Integration Suite and SAP Extension Suite. The functionality for our
customers will remain unchanged. What customers will notice will be the changes in the
service wherever the brand name “SAP Cloud Platform” is currently being referred to.
What is the impact on SAP Cloud Platform Trial and SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit?
Going forward, the trial will be renamed SAP BTP trial and the cockpit will be renamed SAP
BTP cockpit. There is no change in capabilities or user experience in the trial and the cockpit.

Digital Platform for Intelligent Enterprises

Figure 1: The Intelligent Enterprise Framework

The Intelligent Enterprise is a strategy that allows you to rapidly transform data into insight –
feeding process automation, innovation, and optimal experiences. The Intelligent Enterprise
has three key components:

1. Intelligent Suite which consists of Digital Core (read SAP S/4HANA), CRM, SRM and suite
of SAP products.

2. Intelligent Technologies consisting of Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML),

Internet of Things (IoT) and Analytics.

3. Digital Platform consisting of Data Management and Cloud Platform.

The SAP Digital Enterprise Platform is comprised of a state of the art enterprise data storage
and compute platform, critical data integration and application development tools, as well as
best in class front office analytics tools. All of these capabilities are integrated via cloud
services that enable organizations to increase value delivery to customers at significantly
lower costs, through digital transformation and simplification.

Unit 2: Introduction to SAP BTP, ABAP Environment

Extensibility for Customers and Partners

Experience gained from various customer and partner projects has made clear that most SAP
S/4HANA and SAP S/4HANA Cloud systems have been extended to fulfill customers’ needs.
This is due to the nature of enterprise business software, where best practices need to be
aligned with custom practices, and standardized systems need to be integrated into an
existing software landscape.
Therefore, extensibility must cover a broad spectrum of adaptation. This includes changes to
software behavior that go beyond the capabilities of business configuration, data model
extensions, data exposure and integration, layout changes to user interfaces (UIs) or forms
and reports, and creation of new UIs and the customer’s own applications.

Figure 2: Extensibility Options for SAP S/4HANA and SAP S/4HANA Cloud

In times of quickly changing business processes, extensibility projects need to be fast and
efficient. For this reason, SAP S/4HANA Cloud supports either of the following approaches to
extensibility:
● In-app Extensibility – an approach taken directly within the software stack.
In-app extensibility focuses on adaptations created by key users, with its main features
geared toward adding new fields or custom logic and adapting the standard UIs. Custom
forms, reports and UIs, and custom business objects are also supported. Discovery of in-
app extensibility capabilities is possible through the extensibility cockpit – a key-user app
that allows developers to browse through data and process models and visualize
extensibility options.
● Side-by-Side Extensibility a broader approach utilizing all the capabilities of a platform-as-
a-service (PaaS) platform.
Side-by-side extensibility on SAP BTP allows developers to build their own applications,
enhancing and supplementing SAP S/4HANA and SAP S/4HANA Cloud. As shown in the
figure, although the coupling of side-by-side extensions is quite loose, tight integration on
all architecture layers is still provided by the appropriate APIs. So, side-by-side
extensibility is mainly a story of APIs and suitable programming models. All APIs available
for side-by-side extensibility are documented on SAP API Business Hub.
