The unique advantage of integrating SAP business applications with SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) for end-to-end processes is its ability to orchestrate and enrich data from different application silos. SAP BTP, particularly through its Integration Suite, acts as the central layer that connects disparate systems (like S/4HANA, SuccessFactors, Ariba, etc.). It manages the flow of the business process across these systems, transforms data formats, and can enrich the data with additional context or logic during the process flow. This orchestration breaks down silos and creates a single, coherent business process from otherwise disconnected applications.

A. Storage of centralized, harmonized data: While BTP offers data storage solutions (e.g., SAP HANA Cloud), its primary and unique advantage in process integration is orchestration, not just storage.

B. Generation of trusted, business-critical data at its source: This is the function of the core SAP business applications (e.g., SAP S/4HANA), which act as the systems of record, not the primary role of BTP in an integration scenario.

D. Collection of contextualized, accessible data: This is an outcome of successful integration, but option C more accurately describes the specific action and capability (orchestration and enrichment) that BTP provides to achieve this result.

1. SAP Business Technology Platform Official Documentation: The SAP Help Portal describes the SAP Integration Suite

a core service of BTP

as the solution to "harmonize processes and data across disparate systems." It explicitly mentions capabilities for orchestrating and coordinating process flows.

2. SAP Whitepaper on the Intelligent Enterprise: SAP's strategy for the Intelligent Enterprise positions BTP as the platform to deliver "end-to-end business processes." These documents emphasize BTP's role in integrating data and processes across the entire value chain

which involves orchestrating workflows between siloed applications.

3. SAP Learning Journey: In the official learning materials for SAP BTP

the integration pillar is consistently presented as the solution for connecting and orchestrating processes. The Cloud Integration capability is highlighted for its role in modeling and executing process flows (iFlows) that connect different endpoints.
