Features

Free Choice of Programming Languages

Freely choose from supported development languages and leverage open source as well as SAP managed buildpacks for application development.

Increased Development Efficiency and Speed

Developers benefit from out-of-the-box consumption of SAP and hyperscaler services (UPS), allowing them to focus on building business applications and spend less time on configuration, deployment, and infrastructure considerations.

Support for Cloud Application Programming Model

Developing in the SAP BTP Cloud Foundry environment, you can leverage the Cloud Application Programming Model (CAP), an opinionated framework for business application development.

Multi-Cloud and Free Choice of Infrastructure

Cloud Foundry decouples the application from its infrastructure acting as an abstraction. Hence, business applications built in the SAP BTP Cloud Foundry environment are portable and can be moved across clouds without being tied to an infrastructure provider. No hyperscaler lock-in!
