Hi Sara,

Yes it is supported for Netweaver 7.1 stack. Because as we know now SAP came with ESOA Concept so its used all over NW Stack.

HI

The newest release of SAP XI was released in the 4th quarter of 2007. It is now called PI (Process Integration) 7.1.

Historically, SAP upgrades consists of large, comprehensive releases that compel companies to upgrade in order to take advantage of new functionalities. PI 7.1 is brimming with new functionalities and these are the business benefits:

u2022 strategic u2013 business innovation and synchronized information improves decision pure technology upgrade and/or retrofit of custom modifications into new standard making

u2022 functional u2013 process improvement leads to improved productivity

u2022 technical u2013functionality

In todayu2019s ever changing world of technology and business innovations, the ability to accelerate innovation and develop operation excellence better and faster than competitors is critical to a companyu2019s success. Business processes are the key to unlocking the potential of these strategies for competitive differentiation. This upgrade paves the road to an enterprise SOA (eSOA) which allows companies to quickly build and modify business processes to adapt to rapidly changing markets. With enterprise SOA, companies can unify stand-alone processes to quickly compose new end-to-end processes, selectively redesign existing processes and facilitate seamless process design and execution across company boundaries to take advantage of business partnersu2019 expertise. Enterprise SOA (eSOA) unleashes the untapped potential of existing business process within and across company boundaries.

The mission of SAP PI 7.1 is to provide ONE integration platform for all types of business -- SAP and non-SAP, A2A, B2B, BPM, service enabling and BAM. It saves operational costs and enable process transparency for all scenarios and leverage open systems.

The purpose of SAP PI is not to reinvent, but to leverage the investments you made

into your existing integration landscape and arrive at your new service enabled

landscape in an evolutionary manner.

Below are the various business scenarios and processes available in PI 7.1:

Application-to-Application (A2A) u2013 It supports message-based and standard-based integration of internal company processes by seamlessly connecting SAP and non-SAP applications.

Business-to-Business (B2B) u2013 It provides functions to create and manage collaboration profiles and agreements between business partners. It supports B2B industry standards such as RosettaNet Implementation Framework (RNIF) or CIDX. The Partner Connectivity Kit (PCK) is used to exchange XML documents between small business partners or subsidiaries.

Business Process Management (BPM) provides functionality to adapt systems to changing processes. It supports the entire life cycle of business processes u2013 from planning, implementation and monitoring to optimization.

u2022It gives the business users the ability to directly model, manage, monitor and analyze business processes

u2022Enables continuous process improvement and the dynamic modification of business processes

u2022Provides the ability to change process rules without additional IT investment, thus extending the companyu2019s core business investment and maximize the return on its strategic assets.

u2022Provides greater visibility into critical business operations for better decision making by delivering the right information at the right time

u2022Allows the integration of people, applications and internal external resources

Enabling Service Enterprises u2013 Integration of processes and applications is often a difficult task because of heterogeneous system landscapes based on different platforms, computer languages and proprietary APIs. With Web Services, it enables application integration without the need for complicated and expensive development projects. The development of services are based on the following concepts:

u2022A service is a routine that can be called and executed and has a standardized interface. To make an existing function of a system available to the outside world, the function can be encapsulated as a service.

u2022Services are based on the W3C standard Web Service Description Language (WSDL) which is independent of a specific computer language.

u2022It is essential that the description of a service is available centrally, (e.g. UDDI server) when developing and modeling cross-system processes. However, developers still implement the service in the application systems.

u2022Development in accordance with service concept is the key to flexibility for a service-based architecture for business application (Enterprise SOA).

Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) u2013 This is a collection of tools to monitor relevant business metrics (KPIs) and manage aggregations, alerts and profiles. It provides end-to-end visibility into the business processes thus providing accurate information about the status and results of various operations, processes, and transactions so that problem areas can be addressed and resolved within the business.

SAP PI 7.1 new features and capabilities are listed below:

Enterprise Service Repository (ESR)

SAP has developed a comprehensive approach and a wide range of tools to support the service identification process and is business driven with a high degree of partner participation. The business drivers in focus are :

business process automation

business process innovation

user efficiency and deployment flexibility

SAP refers to this set as the inventory of enterprise services. The inventory is known as Enterprise Services Inventory. The Enterprise Services Inventory is an integral part of the Enterprise SOA (eSOA) strategy. It provides the enterprise services to fulfill business needs. The tools supporting the inventory is the Enterprise Service Repository (ESR).

This is based on the Integration Repository and is the design time repository of service object for ESA. The advantages of having this central repository include

Orderly development

Reuse of existing data and leverage existing investment

Ease of development

Model driven development

Service orchestration

The Services Registry is the UDDI part of the ESR which enables service consumers to find services.

Enterprise Service Oriented Architecture (eSOA)

eSOA in PI 7.1 addresses the shortcoming of the previous XI architecture. It provides the foundation needed to create a modernized and responsive technology environment. The typical SOA approach tends to focus exclusively on the technology framework and neglect the larger business process. A combined focus on both application and infrastructure is something that SAP provides called Enterprise SOA (eSOA). It is SOA plus Enterprise Services which enables partners and customers to plug in reusable application snippets and enable flexibility within business processes.

It is a business-driven software architecture that increases adaptability, flexibility, openness and cost efficiency. This architecture elevates the design, composition and management of Web services to address enterprise requirements.

Major mapping enhancements as well as reusability of user defined functions across mappings. It supports the use of parameters in mapping programs which gives it more flexibility and applicability by allowing the transfer of values at configuration time. Currently, parameterized mappings are supported in Message, Java and XSLT mappings.

Folders concepts are introduced as an additional option to organize projects and interfaces. It is available in both the Enterprise Service Repository (ESR) and the Integration Directory (ID).

The main benefit of folders is to be able to create access authorization. This helps prevent unauthorized display or changes to configurations of an integration process or specific objects.

Advanced Adapter Engine (AAE) is the evolution of the Adapter Engine (AE) as known in previous releases. Its capabilities are:

u2022It enables for end-to-end message processing without any help from the Integration Engine (IE) during runtime.

u2022It increases message processing speed and throughput by reducing latencies and resource consumption (both memory and processing time)

u2022It is available both centrally (i.e. with installation and instance of IS) and non-centrally

u2022Its features supports high volume and becomes the cornerstone of customers SOA strategy.

u2022Local Processing in AAE: Integration Server (IS) is not involve during runtime (mapping and routing carried out within AAE)

u2022Classical Processing with AAE: Processing also within through Integration Server (IS)

u2022Local processing is feasible for existing java-based adapters. This represents a performance and resource usage improvement.

Point-to-Point (P2P) u2013 PI 7.1 provides a tool and infrastructure to centrally design, configure and support P2P connection. Message types and interface can be designed in the Enterprise Services (ES) Repository without going through the Integration Engine (IE). Connection configurations and communication channels can be done in the Integration Directory (ID) and configuration objects are automatically propagated to the backend business systems.

Additional Web Service (WS) standards such as UDDI, WS-BPEL and tasks, WS-RM which provides WS reliable messaging, policy, security and Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) which is an XML standard for exchanging authentication and authorization between security domains.

WS-RM (Web Service-Reliable Messaging) is an open WS standard for asynchronous messaging (EO, EOIO). Its purpose is to create a generic and open model for ensuring reliable message delivery for Web Services. It is supported via its own entry through the Integration Engine (IE) and not through the adapter engine. Other vendors, like Microsoft and IBM, supports WS-RM.

Principal Propagation is the ability to forward the user context of the message to the receiver system based on Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML). This feature uses the WS-RM protocol

Hi Sara,

New highlights for SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 are:

Enterprise Services Repository as a central storage location for enterprise service definitions and lifecycle management data for all enterprise services

Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) 3.0–compliant services registry for runtime management of enterprise services

Improved support for standards such as Web Service Reliable Messaging (WS-RM), WS Policy, Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)

Extended support for high volume scenarios

Business Activity Monitoring for process definition of milestone monitoring (event correlation)

Improved SAP NetWeaver Administrator support for central configuration and administration of both mediated and point-to-point scenarios

Further functional enhancements include:

XML payload validation

Process editor modeling enhancements: step groups, integrated alert management, configurable parameters

Integration of human interaction (generic user decision)

WS-BPEL 2.0 preview

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

SAP has changed the signatures of the relevant Java classes,So in these cases the Java coding effort should only be "mere syntax check".

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

SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 (SAP NetWeaver PI 7.1)

You can use the ES Repository and Registry with SAP NetWeaver PI and take full advantage of the process integration capabilities of SAP NetWeaver. With the ES Repository, you can start modeling your business process and designing your interfaces, data types and mappings for the message exchange. The Integration Directory and Integration Server that are also available with SAP NetWeaver PI, enable you to configure and to run your business process in your individual system landscape.

SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment 7.1 (SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1)

SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment 7.1 offers full service provisioning capabilities, also for those who need to work with a lean development environment and do not focus on process integration. For those customers, the ES Repository and Registry offers capabilities for service provisioning and consumption
