      Hi, is it possible to

       

      1. start with Fiori as a embedded setup with S/4 and later move to a Hub model? What are the technical steps to do so
      2. start with Fiori on premise (hub or embedded) with S/4 and later move to Fiori on the cloud? What are the technical steps to do so

      Also, with S/4 there is a strong dependency with Fiori (and the underlying netweaver) with the backend core. Thereby making the hub model not very flexible as the same system might not be compatible with other fiori apps of SAP Business Suite etc. Considering this there is traction towards moving to a embedded model. Can you please comment on this and also the performance aspects of such a setup?

      SAP recommends for landscapes with multiple SAP S/4HANA systems an embedded deployment of the SAP Fiori front-end server instead of a hub deployment, i.e. install the product version SAP Fiori for SAP S/4HANA together with the corresponding back-end product version SAP S/4HANA on the same system
