Does option 1 (Hosted) allows configuration?

[alacruz]

Hi Joerg,

Thanks for your Blog, it is very useful.

I would like to ask if we select option 1 (Hosted). besides having the preconfigured scenarios, can we also add our own configuration? Can this system behave as a Demo system for the preconfigures scenarios and also as a Sandbox system for new configuration we would like to demo before doing it in the dev environment?

Kind regards,

Alex

Hi Alex,

yes, this is possible in SAP CAL as well (you “own” the system in your cloud provider/hyperscaler account and have full admin/configuration access to it).

The on-prem option (#2 above) is superior if you e.g. want to connect other inhouse systems (that run on your internal corporate network only) to the S/4HANA system, or there are concerns in your company/industry with data privacy/security … when using a hyperscaler even with a sandbox only.

Best, Joerg
