Overview of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution provided by SAP, launched in 2015, and delivered as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. This solution is built on SAP's in-memory public cloud platform, a high-performance in-memory database that enables businesses to access and analyze data in real time.

The introduction of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is considered a significant milestone in SAP's development history, offering a "barrier-free" approach that opens up opportunities for large, medium, and small enterprises to adopt ERP solutions.

Businesses do not need to manage the infrastructure and software, as this is directly supported by SAP. The SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud solution offers flexible deployment with two major updates annually. Additionally, SAP provides minor versions that can be updated based on the specific needs of the business.
