Secure and efficient market communication

The MaCo Cloud is a platform fully managed by SAP for energy industry market communication. It combines AS4/EBMS gateway, format processing, check rules and SAP integration in a scalable SaaS operation — BDEW/BSI compliant, audit-proof and tried and tested in practice.

The scope of services offered by the MacO Cloud

AS4 gateway & certificate management

Automated handling of keys, roles/certificates (SM-PKI), roll-over and trust stores.

Message validation & conversion

Function/syntax checks and mapping for common processes (e.g. GPKE, GeLi Gas, WiM, mABIS, Redispatch) and formats (UTILMD, ORDERS, INVOIC, MSCONS, APERAK).

Integration with SAP & third-party systems

Out-of-the-box connectors to SAP S/4HANA Utilities/is-U (IDoc, Enterprise Services, OData/REST) and connection to non-SAP.

Monitoring & automation

End-to-end tracking, alarms, automatic retries/resubmits, dead letter handling, and SLA reporting.

Security & compliance

GDPR-compliant operation, fine-grained access, audit-proof protocols and audit readiness.

Deployment & use

The MacO Cloud is suitable if the following framework conditions exist:

  • Type of company: Network operator, supplier, MSB or energy service provider.
  • System landscape: SAP S/4HANA utilities/IS-U or non-SAP with REST/queue interfaces.
  • Operating model: Cloud-first, EU hosting, clearly defined responsibilities (run/change).
  • Volume & scale: From pilot to mass data — elastic resources during peak loads.
  • Governance: Certificate/key management and rule-based process control required.

Benefits with MacO Cloud

  • Quick start: Preconfigured for standard processes — go-live in a short time.
  • Lower costs & risks: No in-house operation of the gateway; updates for format/rule changes included.
  • Process reliability & transparency: E2E monitoring, automated checks and traceable workflows.
  • Future-proof & scalable: Ongoing maintenance in the event of regulatory changes, multi-client and expandable.
