Introduction

This section provides the background, scope, and key requirements for SyWay’s adoption of SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) as the cornerstone of its global SAP landscape.

Purpose

The purpose of this Application Architecture document is to define a single, authoritative blueprint for how SAP BTP services will be organized, secured, integrated, and managed across all programme phases and regions. It serves as the reference for solution architects, development teams, operations, and audit stakeholders when designing or reviewing any BTP‑based workload

Scope & Objectives

The architecture covers the full BTP footprint required for the SyWay programme, including— but not limited to—Integration Suite, Build Work Zone, Datasphere, PaPM Cloud, Sustainability solutions, Asset Performance Management, Advanced Financial Closing, Global Track & Trace, Document Reporting Compliance, Cloud Identity services, Observability tooling, and SAP Cloud Transport Management.
Primary objectives are to:

Provide scalable and resilient platform services that meet a 99.9 % SLA for production.
Ensure end‑to‑end security and compliance with EU GDPR, US SOX, and China cybersecurity regulations.
Enable efficient DevSecOps with automated transport, continuous integration, and central logging.
Minimise total cost of ownership through sub‑account consolidation, quota pooling, and auto‑suspend for non‑prod runtimes.
Deliver a governed naming and role model that supports audit‑ready change control and segregation of duties.

Requirements

The following table lists the core requirements that the BTP architecture must satisfy.
