SAP recently announced that Service and Support organization offers a development service to build new cloud applications.
SAP said the service builds them on SAP HANA Cloud Platform and through the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud service and also extends existing cloud solutions from SAP.
Customers can enjoy the development, deployment, maintenance and future updates services with monthly subscription which will also lower the total cost of ownership.
Company officials said customers can consume cloud innovations and reduces the up-front capital expenditure required for the technology.
To build and tailor mission critical solutions in a cloud, SAP has offered traditional on-premises application development services with a subscription based pricing model.
Customers can also leverage the cloud to bring innovations to market faster without carrying the burden of operating and maintaining the solutions.
“With the services on a subscription basis, SAP is making it simpler for businesses to move to the cloud by maintaining individualized solutions as the mainstream cloud solutions from SAP evolve,” said Klaus Weber, executive vice president, Custom Development, SAP.
Last month, Net One Systems launched a project to deploy SAP Business Suite 4 SAP HANA, the next generation business suite from SAP to improve productivity and manage operations in real time.
In March, SAP said xChange Automotive delivered its HELIOS integrated social, mobile and in-car software-as-a-service (SaaS) application and marketing services on the SAP HANA platform.
