Many organizations using SAP are eager to capitalize on cloud benefits before fully migrating their SAP workloads. While SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP) delivers innovative and integrated solutions, it often does not fully meet all organizational requirements, leading users to explore additional capabilities offered by Google Cloud. Traditionally, integrating SAP with external services has posed significant challenges, compelling users to opt between native SAP functionalities or inefficient data migrations outside the SAP ecosystem. To address these issues, Google Cloud has introduced its ABAP SDK, which facilitates direct integration of its services within SAP applications, enhancing processes such as sales order automation with DocumentAI or shipping route predictions using BigQuery ML.
