Overall Satisfaction with SAP Business Technology Platform

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

SAP Business Technology Platform allows us to scale applications and use our system or records without the need to add code to it. We like it because it provides business relevant services such as integration suite or workflow. As a small integrator, I use it on behalf of customers for all of their use cases really.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Scalability
Business relevant services
Integration

Cons

App deployment could be easier
More transparent logging
Auditability

Return on Investment

Speed of development.
Quicker to go-live
Build tools massively improved

Usability

My main gripe with SAP Business Technology Platform is that the levels abstraction in all the zero trust stuff is well beyond the ordinary use case of small to medium market customers. The MTA is painful. I should not see a "deployer service" service after I'm done putting an app on the platform.

Likelihood to Recommend

SAP Business Technology Platform is well suited if you are looking to expand s/4 without expanding the s/4 code base itself, but you want to use SAP data. It may be less relevant in areas where SAP Business Technology Platform encroaches on general hyperscalar territory, who are usually cheaper.
