This document discusses hybrid integration with SAP using Azure services. It demonstrates preparing the SAP and BizTalk environments for integration, including configuring the RFC client and property schema. The document shows connecting to SAP traditionally using RFC and IDOC and executing BAPI calls. It then discusses using Azure services like Service Bus Relay and BizTalk Services for integration. Finally, it proposes developing microservices using BizTalk features to enable integration between SAP and other systems in a modern way.
