He joined SAP more than 20 years ago. He developed HR applications for SAP R/3, SAP ERP, and SAP Business ByDesign. After that, his tasks shifted to questions of overall architecture for new solutions. Ralf studied mathematics and received his doctorate from the University of Heidelberg. He is married and has two sons.Hrastnik, JanJan Hrastnik is a member of the SAP S/4HANA suite's architecture team, where he focuses on the virtual data model and the use of core data services in ABAP applications. He has worked in various SAP development areas for more than 15 years. At the beginning of his career, he supported numerous customer projects in the automotive industry. Subsequently, he worked in the supply chain management development of SAP Business ByDesign. Jan's work initially focused on developing the master data required for the production processes, before he took on overarching expert tasks in central architecture topics. He then worked on the SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central solution and native SAP HANA application development.

The definitive CDS resource is back and bigger than ever! Begin with the basics: explore CDS syntax and model types. Then learn to define CDS entities and model SAP S/4HANA application data with step-by-step instructions. You'll develop models for analytical and transactional applications, work with the SAP S/4HANA virtual data model, and get to know the ABAP RESTful application programming model. Round out your knowledge with details on extensibility, testing, and troubleshooting. Get on the cutting edge of data modeling!
In this book, you'll learn about:
a. CDS Data Modeling
Get started with the CDS fundamentals. Model your first CDS view and understand how to work with entity types, associations, annotations, access controls, business services, and more. Explore all-new ABAP functionality and syntax.
b. ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model
Develop application models based on SAP S/4HANA's new ABAP RESTful application programming model. Create behavior definitions, add advanced functions, and implement handlers.
c. Extending, Testing, and Troubleshooting
Customize your applications and ensure they're running smoothly. Extend CDS views with CDS entity extensions, test them with the test double framework, and troubleshoot any issues.
Highlights include:
1) Data modeling
2) Associations
3) Annotations
4) Access controls
5) Business services
6) ABAP RESTful application programming model
7) Virtual data model (VDM)
8) Analytical and transactional applications
9) Hierarchies
