SAP Cloud Platform: Official Tutorials & Resources

New to SAP Cloud Platform?

Learn about some of the key features that make SAP Cloud Platform a complete, enterprise-grade solution for your development, runtime, and operational needs.

Flexibility

You can select the services you need for your business scenario, and choose your preferred persistence layer, cloud provider, region, and environment (Cloud Foundry, Neo, ABAP, and soon Kubernetes too).

Integration

Extend your existing on-premises or cloud solutions, or build new applications in a complete and integrated environment. Open APIs allow you to connect diverse systems and share relevant data, and API management tools allow you to create and even monetize your own APIs.

Security and User Management

Ensure the security of your systems and data by managing access using OAuth 2.0 and Keystore services, for example. User provisioning, authorization, and authentication ensure that only the right people can access the correct data.

Orchestration and User Experience

Your solutions are built to meet the needs of your business and users, and the SAP Cloud Platform supports that by allowing you to define your business rules and workflow. Your users can access information and make decisions using a responsive UI and consistent UX, on any device, while using integrated analytics and collaboration tools.

Developer Experience and Operations

Develop, deploy and configure your solutions. Manage your code with Git integration and services, debug your Java code, or use our integrated development environment to build or extend your business apps from end-to-end. A range of tools for app profiling, lifecycle management, scaling, logging, scheduling, and monitoring, make your DevOps easier.

Do More

The services available on the SAP Cloud Platform mean you can focus on solving your specific challenges; generic issues like translation, tax, and output management are already solved. Incorporate emergent technologies in your new solutions to create value and meet future challenges now.
