Course Summary

Are you curious about the opportunities to do business and deliver services around SAP cloud products such as SAP SuccessFactors solutions, SAP Cloud for Customer, or SAP Jam?

This course will guide you through the next level - putting SAP HANA Cloud Platform into good use for extending various SAP products. You'll learn about most of the extension options that the SAP products support, and explore the required technologies and tools that will help you to gain traction in that space. As part of the course, you’ll create your first extensions for SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite and SAP Cloud for Customer, as well as experiment with different collaboration options in SAP Jam. You’ll get free access to the corresponding system APIs, which you can use after the course as well for follow-up prototyping and experiments. To follow all the units effectively, you should have completed the openSAP courses Introduction to SAP HANA Cloud Platform and Next Steps in SAP HANA Cloud Platform. The course content assumes that you’re already familiar with the concepts and technologies introduced there, and that you have practical experience developing and deploying Java and HTML5 applications on SAP HANA Cloud Platform.
