C4C Transport Management landscape requirements

[joelramirez]

We want to implement the transport system that was introduced in the 1805 release. I am looking for the landscape requirements, because we only have a two tier landscape (Test and Production).

My questions are:

Can I use the 2 tier environment for all objects; PDI developments, Business Roles, layouts etc?

Is there any particular case where it is mandatory to have a 3 tier landscape (Dev, Test, Production)?

Any information it is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Joel,

Transport Management may best fits-in when we have multiple tenants(at-least 3) in landscapes and there is a clear separation between PDI and functional work.

Hence I would discourage this functionality in a 2-tier system.

Hello Jaspreet,

Thank you for your answer.

If we use a 2-tier system, can we still take advantage of the Transport Management functionality introduced in release 1805?

Thanks

Hello Joel,

You can use a 2-tier system.

As a best practice we recommend a 3-tier system because its simple to keep the dev environment separate from test and prod due to namespaces involvevd.

However, if you wish to use a 2 tier landscape, you can develop patches and then upload it back to original ON the same system (since you will be having only 1 system for dev and test activities) - you may enable/disable the solution namespaces based on the testing and once testing is successful then you can deploy to Prod.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jaspreet

Thanks for your response.

I had already seen this blog. This does not answer my question regarding the landscape requirements.

Do we need 3 tier (Dev, Test, Production) for PDI developments in order to use transport management?

Thanks
