Polling Java app hosted on SCP

Jun 27, 2017 at 03:18 PM | 96 Views

Hi,

we need to deploy java app on SAP Cloud Platform (SCP), which:

  • runs constantly 24/7
  • Queries HANA database in set time intervals (polling)
  • Send emails to recipients based on the result of the DB query
  • No front end UI

can someone advise how this can be done please? SCP supports deployment of Java EE web apps. But this is not a web app nor servlet as it doesn't have any front end UI.Any help much appreciated!Thanks!

SAP Cloud Platform

    Hi Peter,

    Do you have a SCP production account with Java compute unit and a HANA DB?

    Thanks,

    Jin

      Hi Christian,

      yes, which container to choose? EJB sheduler? Is there any blog or tutorial for this sort of thing anywhere as I could not find anything relevant?

      Thanks
