Enhancing the SAP Developer Experience
While the future of SAP remains unpredictable, the planned path forward is to keep investing and developing SAP S/4HANA Cloud, specifically in the Business Technology Platform as the main component of the technology strategy for SAP developer experience. It is said that a weakness of SAP is that it lacks an SAP developer-friendly system and contains complexities and roadblocks.
Many developers have worried about their value potentially diminishing because SAP has become more structured. Those responsible for these changes include various developer resources that work with different technologies and varying degrees of expertise and ultimately are tasked with building the future of SAP for SAP developers.

Extensibility
Easier for developers to work the same way as the ECC system but in SAP S/4 HANA cloud (Enterprise Messaging). Event-driven architectures including ABAP (language behind the SAP company) are still very relevant in future development, and as a result, SAP introduced the release of the 2011 SAP Cloud Platform ABAP Environment – Multitenancy.
Data to Value
SAP S/4 HANA cloud combines the capabilities of on-premise with cloud capabilities and therefore connects SAP and non-SAP environments. With its 2021 release, AP Cloud is able to handle Petabyte-sized data and even enable raw data files from SQL to be imported or exported. The ability to connect different sources into SAP Analytics cloud allows customers to have access to data that can be used to create insights about the organization. This will be an essential tool in the coming years for designers, data integration, and much more.
Integration
Full integration within SAP systems has become a possibility due to the SAP one domain model and SAP Cloud platform master data integration services. Each of these is available out of the box and for free. Integration of SAP into 3rd parties is also possible for the SAP developer experience.
