Transaction code description
Concept
Capacity must be built to provide the necessary space for pilot and research projects and to meet the increased demands. This can be done, among other things, by increasing the previous resources or/ and by measures of standardisation & automation as well as "cloudability", outsourcing & outtasking.
In addition, the applications prepare the data in such a way that the user can visually capture it via the presentation layer. Conversely, the application server transfers all data that a user enters via the presentation layer to the underlying database.

A positive aspect of standardisation and automation is the increase in the quality of tasks, since manual errors can be almost excluded. It also increases the speed at which certain tasks can be performed. This is accompanied by a reduction in the proportion of administrative activity and thus in the proportion of the operation of the system landscape.
But when it comes to the intricacies of large SAP environments, Ansible quickly reaches its limits. If you want to use Ansible to implement simple automations - starting and stopping SAP environments, for example - you have to put up with a lot of manual effort and complicated scripts.
With "Shortcut for SAP Systems" a tool is available that greatly facilitates some tasks in the SAP basis.
Furthermore, the tool-supported SAP administration helps us to achieve agreed SLAs.
Understanding the structure and functioning of the system is especially important for IT administration. It is not for nothing that "SAP Basis Administrator" is a separate professional field. On the page www.sap-corner.de you will find useful information on this topic.
Until that time comes, companies can also rely on external service providers to offer expert know-how as well as operational support for the transition period.
