This is the developer news for July the 2nd, 2026.

Hello everyone! June Developer Challenge is at an end and

00;00;09;26 - 00;00;30;02
Ajay Soreng
what a challenge it was. 20 questions, one for every working day of all. Full week of June on details from our documentation were eagerly answered by many, many participants. Well done to each and every one of you who took part. We hope you enjoyed digging into the cap documentation and learning various aspects along the way.

00;00;30;04 - 00;00;55;14
Ajay Soreng
Check out the Challenge Wrapper post for more details. This includes the analysis of the participation and the answers. And next up we have July's Developer Challenge on CAP status transition flows. We will together build a simple, fun game application using CAP. Due to the SAP CAP philosophy status transition flows demonstrate how you can model your state transitions while writing minimum code.

00;00;55;22 - 00;01;04;08
Ajay Soreng
I welcome you all to join the July SAP Developer Challenge. Linked to both the challenges will be in the description. Happy learning!

The SAP HANA Cloud Q2 2026 release is now available, and I'd like to outline the key technical advancements. First, we are enabling a genetic data access. The SAP HANA Cloud now includes automated Knowledge Graph generation from your metadata, eliminating the need, some manual semantic modeling, and enabling AI driven data interactions. In addition, we will introduce identical tools for database object discovery and data retrieval.

00;01;32;13 - 00;02;04;03
Witalij Rudnicki
These tools allow you to query enterprise data using natural language, reducing the dependency on pSQL expertise. Did I just say that? Okay, the Knowledge Graph engine has been updated to support transforming knowledge graphs into property graphs, enabling advanced analytics. Additionally, SPARQL Federation queries are now available for instant access to distributed data across multiple environments. We have deepened our integration in SAP HANA Cloud with SAP AI Core.

00;02;04;06 - 00;02;28;08
Witalij Rudnicki
The new SQL predict function enables the use of tabular AI models like rapid one directly within the database, while AI text completion introduces LLM powered text generation into a scale. Workflows. For more details, join the upcoming in-depth webcast with the product managers or check the blog post on the SAP Community.

Hi everyone, and welcome to the SAP Developer News. AI is changing the way enterprise applications are built, used and experienced, and that raises fundamental questions on where SAP's UI technology is headed in the future. And we want to hear from you, which is why we've created a short anonymous survey to answer questions like how well does UI5 fit your needs in the age of AI?

00;02;55;27 - 00;03;21;29
Nico Schoenteich
And what kind of experiences do you see dominating user interfaces in the coming years? The survey takes around five minutes to complete, is completely anonymous, and it's relevant for anybody who's working with SAP UI technologies. Really. Whether you are a developer, architect or decision maker, make sure your voice is heard. Check out the link in the description. Hope to talk to you soon.

00;03;22;00 - 00;03;28;08
Nico Schoenteich
Bye.

Did you know that Cloud Application Programing Model is a database agnostic framework? Yes, indeed. And did you also know that CAP supports schema evolution? So what is it? This is a tiny sample CAP application with persistent SQL database in order to change the data model. You can either add a new field to an existing entity, or you can make compatible changes to the existing fields in an entity.

00;03;54;28 - 00;04;15;03
Ajay Soreng
In this particular example, I'm adding a new field called a specialist to the books entity, and all you have to do is to again deploy your model again and you are good to go. And we see that there is no more data loss and no more data migration nightmares. Happy coding.
