What is SAP S/4 HANA Cloud?

SAP S/4 HANA Cloud is a Cloud ERP system from SAP which is considered the gold standard in ERP systems and is used by many of the worlds largest and fastest growing companies. It provides industry specific and best of breed capabilities across financial management and accounting, project management and accounting, resource management, supply chain, production, MRP, sales, field service management and much more. SAP S/4 HANA Cloud comes in two editions - Public Cloud and Private Cloud.

What's the difference between SAP S/4 HANA Cloud Public and Private?

There are a few differences between SAP S/4 HANA Private & Public Cloud including datacentre provider, customization and configuration, cost and scalability.

The Private Cloud edition of S/4 leverages an On-Premise SAP S/4 HANA code base. SAP have simply taken their On-Premise S/4 HANA application and built a fully managed service around it, which includes hosting on a chosen Hyperscaler (AWS, GCP, Azure and more), technical managed services such as SAP Basis and some light application management services (AMS). Private Cloud users are able to customize their S/4 HANA system pretty much to their hearts content, making it the best fit for large and complex organizations as the system is single tenanted and not shared with other businesses.

The Public Cloud edition of S/4 HANA Cloud is built upon a revamped, seperate, Cloud native code based developed by SAP, based on the original S/4 HANA On-Premise system. It is a multitenanted system, meaning the core application and hosting is shared amongst other SAP customers, although data and access is seperated. This makes S/4 HANA Cloud cheaper to purchase and run. Setup is often also easier and faster, although customers are unable to directly customize the system and only have the ability to configure within a predetermined set of options.
