SAP Cloud Connector

SAP Cloud Connector (SCC) 1.2.0 has been released with the following enhancements:

• An automatic check for landscape host and proxy (if existing) that shows whether a connection to the Cloud is possible. The result appears on the Home tab.
• A manual connectivity check for all exposed systems, which shows whether the backend is reachable from SCC.
• A process monitor that shows the status of all SCC processes and provides a restart option for the different process groups.

You can download SAP Cloud Connector via the SAP NetWeaver Cloud update site -> Additional Software tab.
