What is AWS Connector for SAP #
Linke’s AWS Connector for SAP is an SAP add-on, completely written in the Advanced Business Application Programming (ABAP) language, that enables SAP systems to integrate with AWS in an unprecedent manner. By implementing AWS Software Development Kit (SDK) in ABAP, enterprises can leverage AWS services as an extension of their SAP workloads using the same tools and programing language they already use.
Linke’s AWS Connector for SAP helps accelerate experimentation, innovation, and implementation of integration scenarios between your SAP workloads and your AWS environment. With this connector you don’t just migrate to the cloud, you become integrated with all the possibilities of the cloud, allowing you to operate more efficiently.
