App hosting

The HTML5 Application RepositorySAP HTML5 Application Repository service for SAP BTPserviceStores built UI5 and HTML5 applications and serves them at runtime through the approuter, so an app ships no static server of its own.sap official, btp stores the static HTML, CSS and JavaScript a built UI5 app compiles to, and the application router reads it from there at runtime; the Application Frontend serviceSAP Application Frontend serviceserviceOne managed entry point that hosts a built frontend, serves its static files and routes its backend calls — subscribed in the cockpit rather than deployed into a runtime.sap official, btp hosts the same kind of built app as a subscribed SaaS application instead.

Not covered: Neither service is UI5-specific: both store any built HTML5 frontend the same way. SAP-samples/ui5-deploymentsSAP-samples/ui5-deploymentssampleA sample that deploys one UI5 freestyle application to SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry Environment through three approuter setups, standalone, managed and hybrid, each built into an MTA archive.sap official, ui5 packages a UI5 app for these two paths and demonstrates the packaging, not the hosting itself.
