SAP Ui5
What is SAP UI5?
SAPUI5 (SAP user interface for HTML 5) is a collection of libraries that developers can use to build desktop, tablet and mobile applications that run in a browser. With SAP’s SAPUI5 JavaScript toolkit, developers can build SAP web applications using HTML5 web development standards.
When users access an SAPUI5 application from their device, a request is sent to the respective server to load the application into the browser. The view accesses the relevant libraries. Usually, the model is also instantiated and business data is fetched from the database.

SAP Fiori
SAP Fiori Architecture
Developed to meet new enterprise IT criteria, SAP devised Fiori to be available on-demand in the cloud and on-premises. Fiori must also support multiple device form factors. Some architectural principles of Fiori include:
Central Access to apps through the SAP Fiori launchpad – supporting personalization, navigation, and configuration
Open Data Protocol (OData), which facilitates secure provisioning and data consumption
Fiori also embeds analytics into apps, if those are required. Developers can engage in custom development, so they are able to design, build, and deploy SAP Fiori apps rapidly.
Fiori app users can start a task and save it in an incomplete form. Later, they can resume working on it from a different device.
