Relevance of SAP Basis
TUNING
The core component of SAP Basis is the application layer. It contains one or more application servers and a message server.
In order to cope with the digital transformation in general, but also to cope with the changing demands on the SAP basis and its scope of responsibility, it is necessary to revise existing roles and define and establish new roles. These include the roles of the technology architect, new features of the Subject Matter Expert (SME), and the role of the Expert Team Lead in leading a group of experts. Further information can be found in chapter 7.1 and 9.3 of the Master's thesis.

Significant changes have also been brought about by SAP's cloud strategy. For example, the latest products such as SAP HANA and SAP S/4HANA are available entirely as cloud solutions.
Here, too, the requirements profile for SAP Basis experts has shifted: Database administration is simply part of the job today. The majority of SAP customers place the SAP HANA database in the hands of the Basis team for build and run operations.
Tools such as "Shortcut for SAP Systems" complement missing functions in the SAP basis area.
SAP Basis is the foundation of any SAP system. You can find a lot of useful information about it on this page: www.sap-corner.de.
Only under these circumstances can IT operations meet the requirements and work quickly, flexibly, innovatively and cost-effectively.
The so-called SAP message server also belongs to the application layer.
