What this guide doesn’t do

This document doesn’t provide guidance on how to set up network and security constructs like Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC), subnets, route tables, access control lists (ACLs), Network Address Translation (NAT) Gateway, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) Roles, or AWS Security Groups. It doesn’t cover the high availability (HA) setup for the SAP Application Server Central Services/Enqueue Replication Server (ASCS/ERS), and focuses only on the database (DB) layer when covering the single points of failure (SPOF) for the SAP applications.
