ABAP in the Cloud

SAP BTP, ABAP environment (formerly SAP Cloud Platform, ABAP environment) requires specialized knowledge of language limits and development environment—let this book be your guide! Begin by provisioning a trial instance and setting up ABAP Development Tools in Eclipse. Then, walk step-by-step through building an app using the ABAP RESTful application programming model, developing backend services, and creating SAP Fiori apps. Connect your cloud-based ABAP applications to on-premise and cloud systems and learn how to manage and maintain those applications. ABAP’s not dead, it’s in the cloud!

Set up the SAP BTP, ABAP environment and see how the cloud changes the ABAP programming language
Develop complete applications, from backend services to the SAP Fiori frontend, and learn to test and monitor apps
Connect to on-premise and cloud systems with external APIs

You'll learn about:

Developing Applications:
Learn about the ABAP RESTful application programming model, which governs ABAP application development in the cloud. Then get step-by-step instructions for all aspects of building applications, from developing and testing the application to populating database tables and enabling backend services for consumption.
Consuming External APIs:
Connect your apps! For on-premise systems, such as SAP S/4HANA or SAP ERP, connect via HTTP and RFC connections and consume OData services and RFC function modules. For cloud systems, connect via SAP API Business Hub.
Operating Applications:
Understand your options for application lifecycle management! Learn to use abapGit, explore monitoring functions like authorization traces, debug your applications, and manage your security.
