Hello, Habr! Let's talk today about why SAP came up with Kyma and what it is.
Kyma / kee-ma / in Greek means wave.
It is an open source project built on top of Kubernetes. The main purpose of Kyma is to simplify the creation of serverless and microservice cloud-native applications to extend the functionality of SAP business solutions. That is, with the help of it, you can create the functionality necessary for the company, but which, for one reason or another, is not available in standard SAP solutions (for example, SAP Ariba, SAP Business Suite, S / 4HANA, etc.).
