 Extensibility Options - 

 Smaller changes can be done using “On Stack” (1 and 2) extensibility

  1. Key user Extensibility - Can also be done by a key user within the given framework using given tools 
    • UIs
    • Fields & Tables
    • Forms & Analytics
    • Business logics
    • CDS Views
  2. In App Extensibility - Uses ‘ABAP Cloud’ as the underlying programming language and makes strong use of pre-defined standardized APIs 
    • Tightly coupled extensions
    • ABAP+ S/4HANA data
    • Custom APIs
  3. BTP - Side by side extensibility
    • Independent development environment
    • Access shielded backend systems
    • Multi language and runtimes support
