Web IDE Question for Public Sector Defense Customer

Public Sector / Regulated Industries - Defense Customer

We do not have a certified FedRAMP environment option in the NS2 environment at this time with HANA Cloud Integration (HCI) or SAP Cloud Platform

Question from Defense Customer team – “Web IDE is a development tool for Fiori/HTML5 development which is supposed to make Fiori development significantly faster than the traditional tools such as NWDS/Eclipse. Web IDE is what our developers are trained on and this is what SAP is really promoting as the development tool for all Fiori/HTML5 development but the problem is that the use of this tool requires us to connect to SAP Cloud Connector (previously called HANA Cloud Connector) even for on-premise applications. This SAP Cloud Connector is in the SAP commercial cloud and from what I could glean from SAP sites, Web IDE would store our any of our custom source code in this commercial cloud and that's what our concern is. We do not know at this point if there is a secure NS2 Cloud environment that federal gov is allowed to use or if there any kind of waiver/MOA in place between DOD and SAP to allow use of Cloud Connector.

I am attaching an FAQ on Web IDE and here is a link as that should provide some additional info.

I am reading information from here - https://www.sap.com/developer/topics/sap-webide.html and when I scroll down to the summary matrix I see a Web IDE for HANA , but the different between the two columns is the word Fiori – I only see it show up on the SAAP Cloud Platform column – they really interested in Fiori and Mobile and obviously on-premise –

Can you provide insight, or anyone you can point me to on how I can provide guidance back to this customer?
