Business Technology

Business wants to accelerate digital transformation and leverage modern technologies, while IT has to manage a landscape that remains controllable and compliant. This requires a careful balance between stability and innovation. In industries where operations depend on 24/7 continuity, such as manufacturing and process industries, utilities, or technical services, IT performance has a direct impact on operational reliability, safety, and (contractual) service quality.

SAP Business Technology Platform

The SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) plays a central role in today’s IT performance. By enabling app development, integration, automation, and data processing outside the SAP core, you maintain a clean core within S/4HANA. At the same time, you can quickly respond to changing business requirements. This makes the architecture future-proof and ensures that upgrades can be implemented smoothly.

As an IT manager, you often face challenges such as:

excessive customization in the core, which makes upgrades or migrations difficult and delays innovations;
limited flexibility to quickly develop or adapt new functionality;
complex integrations between SAP and other systems;
technical debt that slows down digitalization or creates risks during major changes;
pressure to modernize without disrupting production, service delivery, or maintenance operations.

SAP BTP supports the following five domains:

App Development: Creating additional functionality or mobile support for service or maintenance without customizing the core.
Integration Services: Connecting systems such as asset management, IoT data, production, or planning systems.
Automation & Workflow: Automating processes for notifications, approvals, scheduling, or task allocation.
Data & Analytics: Gaining insight into asset performance, service outcomes, and maintenance trends – essential for predictive management.
AI & Machine Learning: For example, automatically prioritizing service requests or predicting failures based on historical asset data.

The Business Technology Platform brings strategy, architecture, and innovation together within a single framework. This enables IT to respond more quickly to business needs, whether that involves the digitization of services or implementing predictive maintenance.

The result is a SAP landscape that is stable at its core, flexible beyond the core, connected to other business and asset systems, and ready for continuous innovation. This allows IT to look ahead instead of managing reactively.

Explore the SAP BTP domains below. (Please note: SAP currently uses a slightly different classification.)

App Development (with SAP BTP)

Build new apps or extend standard SAP apps with SAP BTP. Make processes more user-friendly and efficient. Use the rich suite of capabilities, from pro-code tools to low-code/no-code tools.

Integration (with SAP BTP)

Let systems integrate and collaborate efficiently and insightfully. This is crucial for streamlining processes and solving problems. Think of internal collaboration and integrations with systems of suppliers, partners and customers.

Data & Analytics (with SAP BTP)

Make decisions based on clean, reliable, clear insightful data. Optimize your processes with the right dashboarding. Think of solutions like Master Data Governance, SAP Analytics Cloud and SAP Datasphere.
