Welcome to the Developer Challenge for the month of August. This month we are going to focus on ABAP. We thought it would be good to prioritize a simple and popular topic among ABAP developers.
Yes you guessed it right! – ABAP Core Data Services.
ABAP Core Data Services (CDS ) is an extension of the ABAP Dictionary that allows you to define semantically rich data models in the database and to use these data models in your ABAP programs. CDS is a central part of enabling code push-down in ABAP applications. CDS simplifies and harmonizes the way you define and consume your data models, regardless of the consumption technology.
You can find more information about ABAP CDS in this video and also in this help document : https://help.sap.com/docs/abap-cloud/abap-data-models/abap-data-models?locale=en-US
The Challenge:
The challenge is very simple and can be finished during your coffee break!
Each week, you will explore specific features of CDS and by the end of Week 4, you would have built a full stack Fiori application. Please don’t forget to check this blog post every week to know more about the next week's challenge. We will also make sure to provide all required information to help you finish this challenge.
Noteworthy challenge entries may be showcased in future posts, videos, or live streams by the Developer Advocates and will certainly be appreciated by the SAP Community members.
Sounds interesting…right? So let’s grab a cup of coffee and dig into the world of ABAP Core Data Services.
