Development Systems

If your primary interest in taking this course is simply to familiarize yourself with the technical development-related necessities and capabilities of the SAP Fiori UX, you do not need access to a development system.

However, we realize that many of you will be interested in developing your own scenarios, based on the instructions in the course. For the purpose of this course, we will deploy an SAP appliance onto an Amazon Web Service account, which will incur a charge. Your SAP appliance is provided as a free trial. We will provide a detailed guide with instructions on how to set up an account in week 1 as a precursor to the optional exercises. There are a few restrictions for this free account, but you’ll be able to follow the course without any issues, as the instructor will use the same system as you.
