SAP Cloud Platform Extension Factory

INTRODUCTION

SAP Cloud Platform Extension Factory is the native extensibility framework designed for the Intelligent Enterprise. It enables organisations to build, extend and integrate applications on a scalable, cloud-native foundation without disrupting core systems. By decoupling extensions from the digital core, it helps enterprises innovate faster, reduce technical debt, support heterogeneous landscapes and deliver consistent, future-ready digital experiences across channels and environments.

Why Enterprises Need an Extension Framework

Modern IT landscapes consist of multiple applications, custom builds, integrations and third-party services. Extending these directly in the core slows down upgrades, increases risk and locks the business into monolithic deployments. An extension framework like SAP Cloud Platform Extension Factory removes that dependency — allowing teams to innovate independently, deploy faster and maintain business continuity without impacting mission-critical systems.

How Extension Factory Accelerates Innovation

The framework provides ready-to-use services, APIs and runtime environments so developers can quickly build new capabilities, automate workflows, integrate systems and deliver new digital services with minimal setup effort. Whether running on SAP Business Technology Platform, AWS, Azure or other hyperscalers, the Extension Factory enables scalable, secure and cloud-native innovation — aligned to enterprise governance and future growth.
