SLD architecture in the landscape

[Former Member]

Hi,

How many SLDs should be there in the landscape. Should there be only one SLD for DEV, QAS & PRD or should there be two SLDs; one for DEV-QAS & other for PRD or 3 SLDs; each for DEV, QAS & PRD. Also please support your replies with reasons.

if you just search with the Keyword 'How many sld's is the best" you wil get lot of threads in SDN which we discussed earlier

Hi,

We use 2 SLD's, one for DEV, QAS and sandboxes, and another one for PRD.

The advantage is that we have a test SLD, and that the production SLD will stay clean. The disadvantage is for exemple when data from a test system needs to be sent to the PRD system, then you'll need to change the SLD connection of the system.

More info on SLD planning in the [SLD Planning Guide|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0a1a8fb-0527-2a10-f781-8b67eab16582]
