Introduction


One of the most common extension scenarios is the consumption of a backend API by a cloud-based UI. Also, this is one of the simplest extension scenarios which can be used as a starting point to understand the end-to-end landscape setup and for building more complex scenarios in the future.

You can find this scenario as a Mission in SAP Discovery Center

Business Case


A Sales Executive of a company meets different Business Partners/Clients in various locations and wants to use a simplified, custom UI application which can run on a mobile device or a tablet.

With an side-by-side extension you can realize this without having a direct/VPN access to your digital core and provide your end users with a custom UI application which allows to view the details of business partners from the SAP S/4HANA system in a secured manner. Additionally, this use case explains how quickly a new custom UI application can be developed and run, fully managed by SAP BTP and describes the full end-to-end setup needed for a productive extension application.

This scenario can easily be adapted for other use cases like exposing product data, sales orders, or other APIs
