Clean-core Development

RAP & ABAP — OData services the SAP-recommended way

Clean-core engineering with the RESTful Application Programming model and modern ABAP — Fiori-ready OData services, from greenfield apps to side-by-side extensions.

Overview

What it is, and why it matters

RAP is SAP's modern framework for building OData services and transactional apps in ABAP — the recommended path for Fiori back-ends on S/4HANA. We build with CDS data models, behavior definitions and clean-core principles throughout.

Done right, RAP gives you Fiori-ready services that are upgrade-safe and maintainable. We use it for greenfield apps on the core and for side-by-side extensions, choosing the deployment model that fits your landscape.
