The Desigrn And Implemontation Of An SAP Low-code Development Platform

To build enterprise application software,every enterprise either purchases enterprise software management suit with high product and implementation cost,meanwhile,uses only a small part of their functionality,or starts with the first line of code and builds development projects by relying on an advanced programing language and integrated development environment.The practice has become increasingly unnecessary.First of all,because of the differences in industry,scale,and inherent characteristics of products,each company's management methods and processes have their own characteristics,and it will continue to evolve according to the scale of the company and business.Due to this background and motivation,users are always looking for a best practice that can maintain flexibility sufficiently while controlling the cost and complexity of development.The low-code development platform was designed for this problem.Secondly,the first pain point in the implementation of enterprise software is not expensive,but communication of the complicated requirements.Business people can't develop software,and people who can develop software have no sense and experience about business pain-points.The low-code development platform makes the development first and then business confirm solution highly efficient.Enterprise users can implement their business needs incrementally through low-code platforms.Third,low-code platforms can eliminate the involvement of technical personnel.Although it requires the builder to be familiar with the business needs and complete the basic business logical combing,it is much more efficient than communicating the requirement with several technical staff.Because of these advantages,low-code development platforms have gradually penetrated into the field of enterprise IT services.Based on a full understanding of SAP implementation technology requirements,this paper designs and implements an SAP low-code development platform to help enterprises quickly build enterprise applications and seamlessly integrate existing SAP system applications.Firstly,based on the problems encountered in the current aPaaS and SAP implementation areas,the topic of developing an SAP low-code development platform is proposed,and then the main problems and work to be solved in this paper are identified based on the current research status at home and abroad.Then the requirements for developing this SAP low-code development platform are further discussed.Starting from the design goals of this platform,the functional and non-functional requirements of this platform are analyzed in detail.According to the design for the requirements of this platform,the technical architecture and functional architecture of the platform were designed.In the technical architecture part,the deployment mode,development environment architecture,and deployment environment architecture of the platform were discussed.In the functional architecture,it was determined that the platform included application development,message,document,process and organization structure management functional modules.The processes of these five parts was designed,too.Then this paper designed and implemented the five functional modules in detail,tested and verified them.In the design part,the model structure and overall structure of the platform are analyzed first,and then the detailed design of each module is explained,and the technical implementation is based on the technical design.At last,a sample mobile CRM system was simulated to verify the availability of the platform,and the predetermined design goals were achieved.In summary,based on the analysis of platform requirements,this paper designs and implements an SAP low-code development platform.
