How is SAP Cloud Platform different than Amazon AWS?


Amazon AWS offers options both in terms of upgrading and expanding capabilities as well as acquiring greater storage space. These upgrades can be done with ease and very little expenditure of time. The process of creating new storage, accessing old storage, and even comparing data can take place over a matter of minutes without requiring the purchase of further hardware. This ability to quickly make changes to the system is not something that SAP Cloud is able to offer.


The functionality and flexibility of Amazon AWS is in a league of its own. There might be many areas where there are gaps in Amazon AWS’s services. This does not end up preventing it from doing its job. Amazon takes feedback from users and uses it to build new products, which it installs as a part of the system. All of the new services and products increase the functional abilities of the platform and allow it to take on an ever-growing list of tasks. In this area it is set apart from its competitors.


The nature of Amazon AWS is such that the services that you wish to employ are already there for use. The infrastructure is ready and waiting for users to employ in their day-to-day business. I appreciate the fact that ease is built into Amazon AWS that makes it easy for even a small business to use.


The SAP Cloud Platform is in many ways a simple system. It can be accessed from anywhere and it can be scaled for need, but the toolbox of functions is not necessarily as expansive as those of other companies. Ultimately, this simplicity can help users. If a platform is too complex then its usability will suffer.


Conclusion


Both Amazon AWS and SAP Cloud Platform are on the expensive side as far as programs go. Amazon offers a great deal of flexibility and adaptability, but the sheer number of features that they offer can make using the program harder. While SAP Cloud offers fewer features, that does not mean that it is always intuitive to use. Time may be the factor that would make Amazon the more attractive choice. The ability to perform functions quickly is something which would make me choose this product.
