Opportunities of the S/4 transformation

The technology change offers the opportunity to combine flexibility and manageability by leaving the S/4 core untouched and adding individual functions.

The hybrid architecture blueprint "MPSA - Multi Pillar S/4 Hana Architecture" was developed precisely for this purpose, building on modern development paradigms such as Java, service orientation and microservices, loose coupling and integration patterns.

The future S/4 core is geared towards standard functionalities and thus remains release-capable and easy to maintain. At the same time, SAP-independent solutions ensure optimal coverage of individual requirements.

Capgemini is also developing the SAP Autocloud as an exclusive partner with SAP. The solution addresses the needs of the discrete manufacturing industry in a rapidly changing market, initially with a focus on the automotive sector. All industry-specific SAP functionalities are covered by the future-proof cloud solution.

In summary, both approaches allow users to benefit from a lean, intelligent Digital Core that is also connected to a hybrid architecture.
