SAP S/4HANA in its broadest sense (including SAP Cloud Platform) not only leads to a new programming model, but also to new options and variants when it comes to extensibility and add-on development. Join this session to hear thoughts about the different options and their consequences for customers and partners. We explore the topics of in-app extensibility and side-by-side extensibility as well as the options for bringing your solution to the cloud.
With the advent of S/4HANA the paradigms of how to develop ABAP based applications changed. This talk will give you insight into the new way how to develop “S/4-style” applications.

Accelerating Time-to-Value with SAP Rapid Deployment Solutions for AribaSAP Ariba
Explore the requirements and benefits of SAP Rapid Deployment Solutions supporting the cloud, particularly for SAP ERP, SAP CRM, and SAP ERP HCM integration with SAP Cloud solutions for business collaboration, procurement, and talent management, with detailed insights on SAP Business Suite integration with Ariba.
SAP solutions have always been extensible to an incredible extent, but mainly inside the system itself. Now things have changed over the last years on how to extend SAP using a side-by-side approach. In this talk I showcase what can be done today by combining SAP with serverless on the SAP side (yes really) and Microsoft Azure’s serverless offerings namely Azure Functions.
FaaS by Microsoft: Azure Functions and Azure Durable FunctionsChristian Lechner
Serverless and especially Functions as a Service are en vogue these days and every cloud provider has their own offering. In this talk, Christian Lechner will show you what Microsoft brings to the table offering Azure Functions. In addition, we will take a look at an extension of these functions, namely Durable Functions. They make your life easier when dealing with real world workflow-like scenarios. As talk is cheap, you will see some live coding to get insights to Azure Functions as well as into the experience when working in the Azure environment.
Extending SAP's core systems is a hot topic since years. SAP's close collaboration with Microsoft brings new options to that table. Within this talk, I will present the possibilities that arise when using Azure Functions for the development of a serverless extensions of an SAP system. As serverless per definition is stateless I will address the shortcomings of a pure Functions as a Service (FaaS) approach and demo how to save the day by bringing state into serverless via Azure Durable Functions.

SAP Embrace - A Look behind the curtains (by minnosphere)Christian Lechner
The slogan of SAP Embrace is “The Intelligent Enterprise and the Intelligent Cloud”. Sounds good, but what is exactly hidden behind that partnership of SAP and Microsoft? What value can you and you’re your company achieve when using SAP Embrace and what are the prerequisites?
We want to address and answer these questions. We will highlight your possibilities coming along with a combination of the SAP and the Microsoft portfolio. Imagine SAP Embrace as a journey with several points of interest. The slides will guide you to these points of interest and explain them. We will show you options how to benefit of the combination of SAP and Microsoft for each of these points.
SAP Inside Track Hamburg 2019 - Side-by-Side Extensibility with Microsoft Azure Christian Lechner
One option in the extensibility universe of SAP is the side-by-side extensibility. Usually this is seen in close relation to the SAP Cloud Platform. In this talk I want to show a small prototype how to leverage the capabilities of the Microsoft Azure in combination with a SAP Business Suite backend to achieve a side-by-side extension. This is accompanied by a short introduction of the serverless paradigm used in the prototype. To grow some desire for making your hands dirty with Azure function as the central part of the prototype I will show how easy it is to setup Azure functions locally.

Successfully developing Cloud Native applications is often regarded from a purely technological perspective - what design aspects have to be considered, what frameworks are best fitting and so on. However, there are many more especially non-technological factors that you have to take into account and that will influence your success. In this talk, I would like to draw your attention to these factors and share the experiences and learnings that we made when developing our first Cloud Native applications.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

3. What are
(some)
results?
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
• Tight coupling to SAP standard
• High probability of unused code
• High effort for testing
• Patches and upgrades are no fun
4. Why do we

Some
Thoughts
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
Consequences
• Not transferable to the S/4HANA Cloud (usually)
Lock in to on premise
• Risk to run into “old habits”
(strong coupling, modifications, …)
Tips/Mitigation
• Stick to S/4 Programing model for Add Ons
• Care about interfaces/APIs (lose coupling, ATC)
11. In-App
Extensions

Some
Thoughts
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
Chances
• Scenario: “RICEFW”/implementation tasks
• Transfer to the S/4HANA cloud is possible
• Restrictions can be a good thing:
• challenge superfluous requirements
• stick to standard
• Tooling is constantly improved
Risks
• Abuse of mechanism for Add On development
• (Temporal) Limitations

Some
Thoughts
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
Tips
• Adhere Cloud Native Development
• Java is (currently) first class citizen
• Go for Spring Boot + Spring Cloud
• Use the SAP S/4HANA Cloud SDK
Keep in mind
• This is NOT ABAP development (skills!)
• There is still a connection to non Cloud Native
applications aka S/4HANA
18. Side-By-Side
Extensions
ABAP
-
Some
Thoughts
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
In general
• Put emotions aside
• Use-cases exist for using ABAP in SCP
Keep in mind
• ABAP is not Cloud Native
• ABAP in SCP has restrictions
in most cases no copy paste from legacy
• Not publicly available yet
• No pricing available yet
• A lot of open questions remain …
20. Side-By-Side

SAP HANA XSA
-
Some
Thoughts
15/11/2017 SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
In General
• Logical approach for Side-by-Side extensibility
• MTA allows a transfer to SAP CP
• Get “cloud experience” on premise
BUT
• Risk of wrong integration patterns
(cross-schema access)
• Do you need SAP HANA as DB or appliance?
• SAP HANA on premise is not a Cloud (scalability!)
22. Some last
words ...
SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
• There is no extension silver bullet
• Choose the right approach for your problem:
It is not an „either … or“ – combinations are
allowed and often make sense
• Keep an eye on the emerging SAP CP services
15/11/2017
23. Some last
words ...
SAP TechEd 2017 Barcelona - NET53494
• Be aware of mid-term consequences
Not only technology counts
• If ABAP: Go for the S/4HANA programing model
• If Cloud Native: Go for Java runtime in SAP Cloud
Platform + S/4HANA Cloud SDK
• Last but not least ...
