SAP Business Network on SAP BTP
Welcome to the Release Readiness page for SAP Business Network on SAP BTP - a central location for information and resources about the upgrade.
SAP Business Network has evolved to now leverage SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) as its underlying foundation, marking a defining step toward a more intelligent, resilient, and adaptable business network. The result is a smarter, more scalable, and more secure foundation that supports how companies collaborate, innovate, and grow together.
This evolution is already well underway. Core components such as the One Directory and Network Portal have been operating on BTP for more than a year. That seamless continuity demonstrates the stability and maturity of the platform. SAP is finalizing the evolution by porting transaction processes and data to SAP BTP.
Watch this video to see how SAP Business Network, powered by SAP BTP, makes procurement and supply chain operations seamless.
