Cheat Sheet


New to the event? You are welcome!

In case you feel a little overwhelmed by all the SAPanese, jargon, and lingo, here is a cheat sheet to sort it out.

24th Edition


The SAP Technical Developers Conference was first held in 1996 in Orlando, Florida during SAPPHIRE. This evolved into an annual event with conferences in Europe, the US, and Asia. The last decade it has been hosted from three location, mostly Las Vegas, Barcelona, and Bangalore, for 3-4 days.

Sign Up / Log In


Learn how to sign up, build your schedule and get the most out of more than 500 sessions available.

Before you can sign-up for the event, you need an SAP ID service account, also free, and if you have interacted with SAP in any way in the past you probably already have one (e.g. your SAP Community account) but if not, here is how.


Tracks and Sessions


This year, the tracks nicely map to the latest Business Technology Platform update which, as you may recall, is an integrated offering comprised of four technology portfolios:

  • Database and data management

  • Application development and integration

  • Analytics

  • Intelligent technologies


The 4 BTP tracks have been complemented, like last year, with tracks about the Intelligent Suite and digital transformation. New are the Customer Experience and Partner Community tracks.

Over the years, for the SAP HANA Academy, SAP’s Partner Innovation Lab, and à titre personnel, I have written a little over 300 posts here for the SAP Community. Some articles only reached a few readers. Others attracted quite a few more.

For your reading pleasure and convenience, here is a curated list of posts which somehow managed to pass the 10k-view mile stone and, as sign of current interest, still tickle the counters each month.
