[former_member288335]

Hi,

Please explain me,

I configure SAP Fiori inbox 2.0 on EHp 8.0. It is interesting for me. It was said two server Front End and Back End servers on our guide . Which of one is Back End and which of one is Fronted server? What is difference between two of these. Are they two physical server?

Is it important to be configured on one server . Fro example I want to configure only one Development server?

In SAP NetWeaver world, the FE and BE servers are just SAP ABAP systems. Depending on chosen deployment model, they can be separated from each other (two systems) or a single system can play both roles.

There is plenty of information about this on the internet, just use google.
