Apparently the BTP centre of Excellence is a good tool to help set this up help.sap.com/docs/sap-btp...

So big focus on day 2 operations of your BTP side by side solution at #saptechedontour And I support this message! Very big gap to managing R/3 with devs taking the lead...

The Morning Show latest episode had a good example today about usage of LLM AI in the enterprise 😜 though possibly included Unsupervised Learning in the mix!

This Devtober session was named badly but is really good around UI5 www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZyI... I'm really looking forward to mid-2026 for Building Blocks being released and a new push towards TypeScript in UI5. MCP demo is great with informative "instructions to LLM" - Early Days though....

I'd forgotten how bad ABAP development without ADT and within CITRIX (where Ctrl-F2/F3 is overwritten with a Citrix command) is!

Hiding Draft-Related Features in Fiori seems like a cool annotation feature, but bit of a worry that it saves the draft continously behind the scenes, hence if you close the browser and view the entries, it looks "active" to end user sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/#/topic/...

Cloudification repository has been updated now too (and yes - note the naming):

Nice to finally see what's new in S/4HANA Private Cloud Edition 2025 - help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4H... - Unfortunate that documentation refer to it as (part of) "SAP Cloud ERP Private".

Has the "Clean Core Level Concept" been already renamed to the "ABCD Framework" or is this just a good individual move to replace an overly clumsy name? I suggest Clean Core ABCD framework FTW!

Great content (and available in 4k too) - Would be nice to add the mock of the service as a best practice in the demo as that is important for "testing in isolation" - at least so I've read and experienced the impact when not done.

I’m curious how many RAP objects in SAP actually support the allowNewCompositions extensibility option (allow you to add 0..n composition). It seems really powerful, but in Public Cloud I can’t figure out how to search for this annotation, and most of the obvious objects don’t seem to have it.

Only a bit more than a month before I have to finalise this ever changing topic with my latest learnings and lessons learned. Plan is to make this about 50% developer focused and 50% IT Manager/Architecture/Functional focused.

I think SAP need to pay for the license to record 4k video for TechEd/Devtoberfest - Seeing blurry computer screens of code isn't great for learning...That said, lots of good stuff coming our way!

S/4 Public question: Can you extend a SAP RAP object beyond custom fields/objects with a 1..n selection (like a list of available colours)? Is there any way to do this without creating a developer extension of all related Fiori apps and repointing at the wrapped RAP object (if that is an option?)

SCN is doing that thing again where if you click on a link you've saved to an SCN blog and are not logged in, you lose the URL and it takes you to the home page (but at least the logon is reasonably fast I suppose)

Search by DDLA type or drill down on annotations - How could this be the first I've seen these tips (maybe wasn't in 2022 S/4)?
In this episode, we'll start with the basics of developing Core Data Services. We'll create a #CDS view for a first table and look at the structure in detail: youtu.be/7hjbphxe7KM

Good intro and I like the Token Cost Breakdown included in this!
