I saw another post saying the open source announcement for CAP was in 2022, so I wanted to see if something had changed recently.</P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 11:36:09 GMT wkpk 2023-10-18T11:36:09Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaq-p/12743546 <P>I have a question about SAP's Cloud Application Programming (CAP) model.</P> <P>1.</P> <P>Is CAP open source? What is CAP’s license?</P> <P>If you look at the following blog( <A href="https://blogs.sap.com/2023/10/02/open-sourcing-cap-how-to-learn-more-or-get-involved/)" target="test_blank">https://blogs.sap.com/2023/10/02/open-sourcing-cap-how-to-learn-more-or-get-involved/)</A> , it is confusing because it explains CAP as if it was released as open source.</P> <P>But I can't find any specific licensing information for CAP (even on Capire).</P> <P>2. </P> <P>Is it possible to install and operate CAP in a non-BTP environment (SAP BTP CF / SAP KYMA etc.)?</P> <P>This is because I believe that if it is open source, it should be able to be used in general-purpose API development as well.</P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 10:50:03 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaq-p/12743546 wkpk 2023-10-18T10:50:03Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743547#M4783100 <P>Please check <A href="https://answers.sap.com/questions/13018451/cap-runtime-license.html" target="_blank">CAP Runtime License?</A></P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 11:28:22 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743547#M4783100 gregorw 2023-10-18T11:28:22Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743548#M4783101 <P>I've already seen that post, but this blog post is very old (published in 2020 year).

But you might already have seen that as the repositories are linked from the mentioned blog article.</P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 12:06:03 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743549#M4783102 robinjayasinghe 2023-10-18T12:06:03Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743550#M4783103 <P>So, is CAP's goal not to make the core open source, but to make the surrounding ecosystem, plugins, and external resources open source?</P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 12:28:35 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743550#M4783103 wkpk 2023-10-18T12:28:35Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743551#M4783104 <P>I can't tell right now (because I am not the one deciding) but you can join the webinar that is linked in the article (actually in 5 minutes <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":face_screaming_in_fear:">😱</span>).</P> Wed, 18 Oct 2023 12:54:29 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/is-cloud-application-programming-cap-open-source/qaa-p/12743551#M4783104 robinjayasinghe 2023-10-18T12:54:29Z
