SAP Cloud Platform: Best Practices

  1. Plan: The first step is to plan your organizational and IT environment to manage your app lifecycles and consider failovers. A well-defined organizational structure along with a corresponding governance model helps your employees to adapt to agile processes faster.
  2. Build Teams: For building teams for SAP Cloud Platform, SAP recommends building two teams, a Cloud Development Team, that will build apps, and an Administration Team, responsible for account operations and building infrastructure.
  3. Create a Knowledge Transfer (KT) Process: A KT process would make sure that the knowledge gained throughout your app lifecycle is shared with others and help them learn from the experiences. Ask your teams to document their experiences and knowledge gained, set up training and discussion sessions and create communication channels. The SAP Jam Collaboration is perfect as a communication channel.
  4. Set Up a Staged Development Environment: The best way is to create at least three subaccounts each for development, testing, and production. The development subaccount will be used for development and testing individual changes in the cloud. The testing subaccount will be used for integration testing and testing in a production-like environment prior to release and the production subaccount for production applications.
  5. Build a Scalable Account Structure: Your business needs may change as time progresses and that’s why it is essential to build an account structure that allows you to scale as per your needs. Begin with one subaccount per development stage. You can also alternatively use one directory that includes all three subaccounts. You can later create more subaccounts and directories depending on your need.
