For decades, SAP landscapes have depended on batch jobs, rigid reconciliation cycles, and layers of custom code embedded deep within the ERP core. While this approach suited slower, more predictable business environments, it struggles to keep pace with today’s real-time, data-driven enterprises. Organizations now operate on continuous streams of data from connected devices, digital platforms, and financial ecosystems—demanding immediate insights and responsiveness. As a result, traditional batch-driven architectures have become a bottleneck, limiting agility, slowing innovation, and increasing technical debt across SAP environments.
This book introduces the Agentic Shift: an approach where SAP S/4HANA stays the system of record, while SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) becomes the programmable layer for real time intelligence, event driven services, and automation. With clear patterns, reference designs, and practical strategies, you’ll learn how to apply clean core principles, build event driven integrations with SAP Event Mesh and Integration Suite, and move from monolithic customizations to modular, scalable services. It also shows how to enable automation, use low code tools to speed innovation, and design SAP landscapes that run continuously—helping architects, developers, and leaders modernize at the pace of today’s business.
You Will Learn How To:
• Understand limitations of batch driven SAP and why real time matters
• Apply clean core principles to cut technical debt and simplify upgrades
• Design event driven architectures with SAP Event Mesh and Integration Suite
• Shift from monolithic customizations to modular sidecar services on SAP BTP.
