Using RAP to build Side-by-Side extensions

[skopp]

Hi everybody,

is there any way to build a Side-by-Side Extension in RAP on BTP without using an unmanaged scenario when reading from an on premise system? Can't seem to find anything about it. 

I hope there is an easier way to consume the APIs and to re-use their functionality.

What is the benefit when I have to implement the whole logic of the business object again on BTP?

Hello Skopp!

Yes, there is a way to do this:

After you have your OData scenario ready in on-premise in BTP you need to create

• a Service Consumption Model
• a Custom Entity with a Query Implementation Class

Here are 2 graphics to emphasize this:
