What SAP Cloud ALM is
SAP Cloud ALM is a cloud service for managing SAP landscapes through guided implementation and automated operations. Its implementation tools cover SAP Activate project work, fit-to-standard workshops, task management, documentation, testing, deployment planning and reporting. Test management handles manual and automated testing, including SAP S/4HANA Test Automation Tool, Tricentis Test Automation and an open API for other providers. Operations monitoring covers business processes, integrations and exceptions, user performance, jobs and automation, configuration and security, health, and business services. Configuration and Security Analysis can check system settings daily against SAP product security recommendations. Third-party tools can connect through open APIs, and monitoring can include custom SAP BTP and non-SAP applications. SAP describes the service as SaaS, with a preferred data center location selected when requesting a tenant. Eligible customers with qualifying support subscriptions receive usage rights. Those rights are limited to internal application lifecycle management, and on-premise SAP solutions must be covered by the customer's SAP Support agreement. The free plan lists one tenant per eligible customer number, 24 GB SAP HANA Memory and 24 GB monthly outbound API data transfer.
