Lean SOA Integration Evolution of PI into Enterprise Service Bus SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 serves many service bus scenarios today. It will evolve further in three areas: SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 serves many service bus scenarios today. It will evolve further in three areas: Process flexibility – Enable Service and events, Service adaptation and Process monitoring Process flexibility – Enable Service and events, Service adaptation and Process monitoring Mediation to address semantic challenge with highly-productive mediation tooling (mapping, etc.) Mediation to address semantic challenge with highly-productive mediation tooling (mapping, etc.) Avoid Spaghetti SOA – loose coupling, managed connections and closed loop SOA Governance Avoid Spaghetti SOA – loose coupling, managed connections and closed loop SOA Governance Provision of pre-packaged content and support for semantic content handling Provision of pre-packaged content and support for semantic content handling total 110, 3GB traffic total ~300, 25G traffic total ~ 40 total ~60, 500MB traffic (~ 10 per app/ERP instance) (~15 per app/ERP) ~25 per app/ERP, ~50 per app/ERP, + 10 svc for composition + 100 svc for composition Consolidate to Services & hub standards Lean tooling & footprint © SAP 2007 / Page 21

SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1: High Volume Support - Advanced Adapter Engine What is it about? Natural evolution of the adapter engine (SAP NW PI 7.0 and before) Provides mapping, routing to by-pass the Integration Server Adapter-to-adapter communication For synchronous and asynchronous scenarios What are the benefits? Gain of throughput and reduction of latency time up to factor 10 (depending on scenario) IS ABAP Integration Engine & ccBPM Engine Advanced JAVA Adapter Engine 3rd Party Application © SAP AG 2008

SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1: High Volume Support - Message Packaging What is it about? Process a bulk of messages in one service call (mapping, routing, ...) Reduce context switches, enable mass operations on database For asynchronous scenarios What are the benefits? Throughput gains: 1.5 – 3.0 times compared to non-packaging (depending on scenario) IS ABAP Integration Engine & ccBPM Engine Message JAVA Packaging 3rd Party Application © SAP AG 2008

Observed trends in PI 7.1 customer projects 69 Customers participated in Ramp-Up Integration centric entry point to SOA (Service enable legacy applications) clearly seen as the highest driver Replace existing middleware and consolidate on PI 7.1 as their strategic integration platform Customers with a considerable SAP footprint use the pre- packaged integration content resulting in minimized costs for integration Customers benefit from the performance enhancements delivered via the Advanced Adapter Engine and message packaging Start with a new installation to further optimize processes Use of the automated configuration aspects for increased developer productivity
