SAP EWM (Extended warehouse management) is used to efficiently manage the multiple warehouse and controls the goods movements. S4 HANA, as previously mentioned, is the latest version of SAP’s ERP suite built on the SAP HANA in-memory database platform. Here’s an overview of SAP EWM in S4 HANA:

EWM adoption has been quite strong in European and American regions, but not so strong in India. However, many leading Indian companies have already switched or are in the process of switching to EWM. The trend is definitely positive and I feel that the Indian market will be a solid base for EWM in the years to come.

Given that SAP WM will be phased out, it would be a good idea to explore EWM. The next 5+ years should be very strong for EWM.
