Hi Folks,
Recently I demonstrated to few of my managers the integration of our SAP ISU with a 3rd Party MDUS System via SAP PI. A question which was repeatedly asked is 'Why SAP PI'? Isn't there any other way to do it? They did mention BAPIs and doing things directly in ABAP but I couldn't really answer as to how weigh one on the other in this particular scenario.
I do know that there are standard ES Bundles for achieving integration with 3rd Party Systems via SAP PI, We can do the interface and message mappings but
- is it possible to achieve this integration with the 3rd Party MDUS System without using PI?
- 3rd party MDUS can only integrate via its web Services so how would they get called?
- Whats the trade-off in case of Performance, Development Cost?
I am looking for best practices, recommendations, trade-offs and possibilities. Your input is very much appreciated.
Regards,
Adil Khalil
