Hi Abdul,

Check this links....

The main difference between 3.0 and 7.0 is the GUI in SLD. But, it is pretty easy to adopt. All other components, e.g. IR, ID, RWB, should virtually be identical.

7.0 also contain some SCM contents not available from 3.0.

Reward points if this helps....

Regards

Vani.

Hello Abdul ,

1. PI 7.0 is the part of Netweaver 2004s and PI 7.1 is key entity in eSOA.

2. PI 7.1 have various mapping Enhancements as well as reusability of UDFs across the mappings etc. which is not available in PI 7.0

3. PI 7.1 comes with the concept of folders for more flexibale and Organized way of developements.

4.Advanced adapter engine is used in PI 7.1, which have overcome the various communication related limitations of previous versions

5.High Volume support in PI 7.1

In SAP NetWeaver 6.40

�� ABAP: The message server and the enqueue server are integrated within the ABAP

Central Instance (CI)

�� Java: The message server and the enqueue server are implemented as services within

the SAP System Central Services Instance (SCS) and separated from the central

instance (CI) this way

In SAP NetWeaver 7.0

�� ABAP: The message server and the enqueue server can be separated from the central

instance (CI) to the ABAP SAP Central Services Instance (ASCS) in the ABAP stack

also (recommended)

In SAP NetWeaver 7.1 -

Only ASCS is supported

Hello Abdul,

1.All new features for XI 7.0 are almost same as for XI 3.0 at least till SPS 19.

Some differences are as follows:

• Adapter Enhancements like JMS, JDBC, Oracle-JDBC and CIDX Enhancements

• New Conversion Agent,

• Receiver Determination Enhancements

• Multi mapping

• User defined enhancements

• Unbounded Processes (Integration Processes).

2. One more difference is the ABAP stack (which is 7.0 and not 6.40) but from the developer point of view there is nothing new.

3. PI 7.0 = XI 7.0

4. For each SP in XI3.0 there is a corresponding SP being released for PI (XI 7.0). A comparison of the service packs in 2004 and 2004s:

In 2004 - In 2004s

SP12 & lower = SP04

SP13 + 14 = SP05

SP15 = SP06

SP16 = SP07

SP17 = SP08

SP18 = SP09

5. XI3.0 is based on WAS(web application server)6.40 - NW2004

PI7.0 is based on WAS(web application server)7.0 - NW2004's

There is not much difference between XI 3.0 with latest Service Pack i.e. 20 or 21 and PI 7.0

The main difference between 3.0 and 7.0 is the GUI in SLD. But, it is pretty easy to adopt. All other components, e.g. IR, ID, RWB, should virtually be identical.

7.0 also contain some SCM contents not available from 3.0. For most of us, this is a non-issue.

In 7.0 we can schedule a background job and edit the payload.

XI3.0 is based on WAS(web application server)6.40 - NW2004

PI7.0 is based on WAS(web application server)7.0 - NW2004's

Currently SP 21 for XI 3.0 and SP12 for PI 7.0 is the latest one.
