SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS plans to launch the SAP Academy for iOS course on March 30 and is now open to early adopters who have used SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS to build and benefit from powerful native iOS applications.

SAP recently announced plans to launch SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS on March 30 to provide developers with the tools they need to build powerful enterprise applications for iPhone and iPad. Developers can now sign up for SAP Academy for iOS, do the necessary training, and build their own native applications. In addition, early adopters have achieved remarkable business results with the help of iOS applications built on the SAP platform.

SAP made the announcement at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona from February 27 to March 2.

Mr. Bernd Leukert, Executive Board member of SAP and head of products and Innovation, said, "as we have promised, SAP is delivering real-time enterprise software for iOS devices, leveraging powerful native applications built for iPhone and iPad to help companies of all sizes transform their core workflows. Now, with the advanced features of SAP Cloud Platform and SAP S/4HANA, customers, partners, and SAP can use the Swift programming language to quickly develop applications that can provide data. As more and more companies begin to develop their own mobile strategies around iOS, this partnership is timely for our customers. "

"when we started working with SAP, we realized that we had a great opportunity," said Susan Prescott, vice president of global product marketing at Apple. Through this partnership, we can combine the innovation and security of iOS systems with SAP's leadership in enterprise software to transform the way people work. Today, we have seen that the combination of iOS and SAP technology is having an impact on enterprises in a variety of industries, helping them achieve higher quality, more efficient and more effective business processes. Now, more developers will be able to take advantage of the new SDK, and we can't wait to see how they can drive enterprise change. "

SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS

Provide enterprise-level tools for millions of developers

SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS aims to provide developers, designers and enterprises around the world with the tools and extensibility they need to help them quickly and efficiently build powerful enterprise applications for iPhone and iPad based on SAP Cloud Platform and using Swift, a modern programming language of Apple.

In addition, the Software Development Kit (SDK) provides a repository with a large number of pre-built user experience components and makes it easier for developers to access innovative device features such as Touch ID fingerprint recognition, location services and notifications, thus speeding up application development and increasing adoption rates.

By adopting the new SDK, developers can make full use of the mobile services and other features of SAP Cloud Platform to provide enterprise functions such as single sign-on, offline data synchronization and enhanced support to meet the complex needs of today's digital enterprises. The SDK will be used in conjunction with innovative tools to identify available user experience building blocks, existing enterprise services, and API (application programming interfaces) for accessing SAP S/4HANA and other third-party systems, and generate code snippets to reduce complexity and allow developers to focus on applications that deliver a superior user experience.

SAP Academy for iOS start

Designed to support and expand the developer ecosystem

Globally, SAP has 2.5 million developers and Apple 13 million. In order to give full play to the power of this community, we have launched SAP Academy for iOS to provide a variety of new employee training and seminars.

The project has now been launched and is scheduled to open to the world later this year. To help developers master and use the new SDK and SAP Fiori for iOS design languages, Apple and SAP jointly developed the first set of SAP Academy for iOS courses.

Through these courses, mobile developers and designers can acquire the knowledge and tools they need, receive the necessary training, and then take full advantage of the latest features of new SDK, SAP Cloud Platform, SAP Fiori for iOS, and Apple hardware and software to develop new types of mobile applications. SAP Academy for iOS plans an appropriate learning route for mobile developers and provides relevant learning resources. When new resources and roles are added, the course content will be updated regularly.

SAP develops local iOS applications for various industries

At present, SAP is building local iOS applications for all industries, from manufacturing to retail, with the aim of transforming the core workflow of the enterprise. Of all these applications, the first to develop is the SAP Project Companion mobile application for the professional services industry, including two versions for business managers and consultants. The product is scheduled for launch on March 30 and is designed to drive greater collaboration among project team members through iPhone and iPad. These applications can be integrated into SAP S/4HANA Professional Services Cloud solutions through SAP Cloud Platform, which in turn takes full advantage of real-time data and greatly simplifies the work of consultants, project managers, and other frequent users.

As the core asset of the Apple-SAP partnership, the SAP Fiori for iOS design language simplifies the user experience and helps developers build next-generation applications by integrating the consumer iOS experience with the needs of business users within the enterprise.

Early adopters have benefited from the cooperation between Apple and SAP

Companies of all types and sizes around the world have joined the early adopter program of SDK and have benefited from it. Thanks to the collaboration between Apple and SAP, users can more easily develop transformative mobile applications to enable enterprise mobility, which in turn can use their most important data on iPhone and iPad devices, and digitize processes.

By redefining the customer experience, Apple and SAP enable businesses to access real-time information anytime, anywhere, and help companies such as Burberry deliver a better user experience to their customers:

Burberry is a long-term partner of Apple and SAP. Since 2012, Burberry has adopted iPad and iPhone devices in its brick-and-mortar stores, allowing them to quickly and easily anticipate and respond to customer needs in real time.

The campus of King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia is itself a city where students, staff and their families live. In order to better meet the needs of this community, KAUST has formulated a corresponding strategy, that is: to create a series of applications to support and improve all aspects of people's life and work.

Abdulmajeed Serajuddin, Enterprise Application Manager of KAUST IT, said: "with SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS, we can not only provide first-class higher education, but also provide students and professors with a superior campus life experience, which allows us to compete with other colleges and universities. In our process of implementing the solution, SAP partner Innovapptive escorted us all the way, helping us successfully complete all the key links."

FunderMax is a leading European supplier of wood derivatives and decorative laminates. The company has opened three production plants in Austria and has more than 1050 dedicated quality-oriented employees. FunderMax is committed to leveraging digital technology, transforming sales processes and collaborating with channel partners such as architects and retailers.

Hartwig Schwarzlm ü ller, vice president of FunderMax, said: "We are changing the way building materials suppliers work with architects. At Fundermax, we pursue a superior user experience. With the help of our strategic partner Atos, Apple and SAP are helping us achieve this goal."
