Mastering SAP ABAP RAP
Building Modern, Cloud-Ready Applications
Introduction to SAP ABAP RAP
• Overview of ABAP RESTful Application
Programming (RAP)
• Designed for modern, cloud-ready business
applications
• Runs on SAP S/4HANA and SAP Business
Technology Platform (BTP)
• Simplifies building scalable and service-
oriented apps
• Supports OData-based services for Fiori apps
Key Features of ABAP RAP
• RESTful service-based architecture
• Support for both on-premise and cloud
development
• End-to-end development model with CDS,
Behavior, and Services
• Native integration with SAP Fiori UI
• Extensibility and reusability for custom
business logic
ABAP RAP Architecture
• Layers: Data, Behavior, and Service exposure
• Core Data Services (CDS) for data modeling
• Behavior Definition and Implementation for
business logic
• OData services for external communication
• Separation of concerns for better
maintainability
Development Flow in ABAP RAP
• Define data model using CDS views
• Create behavior definitions (CRUD operations)
• Implement behavior logic with ABAP classes
• Expose services via OData for Fiori apps
• Test and deploy on SAP BTP or S/4HANA
Advantages of Using ABAP RAP
• Accelerates app development with standard
tools
• Seamless integration with SAP ecosystem
• Reduced complexity with end-to-end
development approach
• Optimized for performance in cloud
environments
• Future-ready framework aligned with SAP’s
roadmap
RAP vs Traditional ABAP
• Traditional ABAP: Monolithic, procedural
approach
• RAP: Service-oriented, modular, and scalable
• CDS replaces traditional database tables/views
• Behavior definitions replace legacy transaction
logic
• Better suited for Fiori and modern UI
development
Use Cases of ABAP RAP
• Building Fiori applications with OData services
• Developing custom business objects in
S/4HANA
• Creating cloud-native apps on SAP BTP
• Extending standard SAP applications
• Automating workflows with RAP-managed
services
Conclusion
• ABAP RAP modernizes application development in
SAP
• Delivers scalable, cloud-ready, service-based apps
• Enhances developer productivity and reduces
complexity
• Supports both on-premise and cloud environments
• Key skill for future SAP developers and
consultants
