If you are an SAP Partner or SAP PartnerEdge Partner, you are eligible to access the test, demo & development (TDD) licensing (see prerequisites). Via this non-commercial licensing framework, there is the offering of the “consumption-based model for test, demo, and development for SAP Business Technology Platform” (SAP BTP) which you can find at https://partneredge.sap.com/en/partnership/licenses/wp_payg_btp.html.

As of mid-October, SAP Landscape Management Cloud is part of that SAP BTP service offering. It enables you to easily create your tenant and try out / demo the system management via SAP Landscape Management Cloud with a daily count of managed systems, thus, a very flexible payment model.

Furthermore, the consumption-based model for TDD includes a free version of SAP Landscape Management Cloud to try before buying: You can provision a full tenant, add all your IaaS-based SAP solutions for basic management capabilities and elevate up to two systems for the full set of features provided by SAP Landscape Management Cloud (what’s the difference?).

Creating your SAP Landscape Management Cloud service instance in SAP BTP is described here. Try it out and let us know your feedback via comments to this post or the built-in feedback button.

PS: We plan to provide the same flexibility to customers as of Q1 2024.
