SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP)
The innovation layer for extending and integrating SAP landscapes
Modern enterprises need to innovate without breaking their core systems. As SAP landscapes evolve, organizations must extend, integrate and automate processes while keeping their ERP clean, stable and upgradeable.
Elision’s SAP Business Technology Platform offering provides a unified foundation to build custom applications, integrate systems, accelerate innovation and operationalize AI across the SAP landscape.
What business problem does SAP BTP solve?
Many organizations face challenges such as:
- Rigid ERP cores that slow down innovation
- Customizations that complicate upgrades and maintenance
- Disconnected SAP and non‑SAP systems
- Slow delivery of new digital capabilities
- Experimental AI initiatives that never reach production
SAP Business Technology Platform addresses these challenges by providing a clean, composable layer for extension, integration and innovation on top of SAP systems.
What is SAP Business Technology Platform?
SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) is SAP’s technology foundation for building, extending and integrating enterprise applications.
It provides a set of cloud services that enable organizations to:
- Extend SAP applications without modifying the core
- Build custom, cloud‑native applications
- Integrate SAP and non‑SAP systems
- Automate processes and workflows
- Embed AI into business processes in a governed way
SAP BTP acts as the innovation layer that connects business context, data and processes across the enterprise.
Business value of SAP BTP
1. Build and extend without breaking the core
SAP BTP enables organizations to follow a clean‑core strategy by moving custom logic out of the ERP.
Custom applications and extensions can be built on SAP BTP while keeping SAP S/4HANA and other core systems standard, stable and upgradeable. This reduces technical debt and future‑proofs the SAP landscape.
2. Accelerate innovation with low‑code and automation
With SAP Build, SAP BTP enables faster innovation by combining professional development with low‑code and no‑code capabilities.
Business and IT teams can rapidly build applications, automate workflows and optimize processes without long development cycles, increasing agility while maintaining governance.
3. Connect systems and processes at scale
SAP BTP provides enterprise‑grade integration capabilities through SAP Integration Suite.
This allows organizations to connect SAP and non‑SAP systems, replace point‑to‑point integrations and adopt API‑led and event‑driven architectures. Integration becomes a managed capability rather than a technical bottleneck.
4. Operationalize AI in an enterprise‑ready way
SAP BTP provides the foundation for enterprise AI through SAP AI Core.
Organizations can build, deploy and manage AI workloads in a secure and governed environment, moving beyond experimentation toward real business impact. AI becomes part of business processes, not a standalone initiative.
Typical SAP BTP use cases
SAP Business Technology Platform supports a wide range of enterprise scenarios, including:
- Custom SAP extensions and side‑by‑side applications
- Clean‑core S/4HANA modernization
- Integration of SAP and third‑party systems
- Process automation and workflow orchestration
- AI‑driven business applications
- Event‑driven and API‑based architectures
These use cases are enabled without compromising core stability or scalability.
