NOTE: As detailed in this blog, this functionality to provision Kyma will be removed from the SAP C/4HANA cockpit and be replaced by the SAP Cloud Platform Extension Factory, Kyma runtime. For more information about the SAP Cloud Platform Extension Factory, Kyma runtime see “Get a fully managed runtime based on Kyma and Kubernetes” and “How to get started”.
The recent evolution of the SAP C/4HANA Cockpit now includes the ability to provision Kyma on Microsoft Azure. This blog details the steps necessary to create the access credentials required to perform the provisioning. Before continuing, make sure you have access to the Extensibility menu of the SAP C/4HANA Cockpit. If you experience any issues accessing the cockpit refer to the help. You will also need to be assigned the Administrator role to complete these tasks, details in the help.
