Hi All,
Often, we are asked by our customers about the possibilities to integrate their SAP workloads with native hyperscaler services. SAP Cloud Platform’s cloud foundry environment provides a possibility to provision and to consume native hyperscaler services. In this blog post, let’s see how this is enabled with Amazon Web Services (AWS) using the AWS Service Broker.
The AWS Service Broker is an open source project which allows native AWS services to be exposed directly through application platforms, that implement the Open Service Broker API such as Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. The Broker provides a simple integration of AWS Services directly within the application platform. This is based on standard Cloud Foundry patterns with service brokers. The step-by-step tutorial on how to achieve this is available in the official documentation. The following image depicts a high-level overview of the steps described in the documentation:
Once the above-depicted integration is implemented, AWS services such as AWS S3, Dynamo DB and so on are available in Cloud Foundry service marketplace as shown below:
With SAP’s multi-cloud strategy, we strive to provide our customers with seamless integration and reuse experience. Stay tuned for more use-cases and scenarios using the native services and I will be happy to hear your feedback as comments below.
All my best,
Harini
