SAP BTP ABAP Environment, aka Steampunk, is the SAP Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering for ABAP Cloud development that enables developers to leverage their traditional on-premises ABAP know-how to develop and run ABAP Cloud applications on the SAP Business Technology Platform, either as an extension to SAP software or as standalone applications. Steampunk is built on and leverages the latest cloud technologies like Kubernetes.

Within the ABAP Platform, we have our Landscape Portal service to provide tools for partners to develop, build, deliver, update, and configure their solutions, and offer customers the possibility to consume partner extensions in their systems.
