We are currently in the process of designing and installing a SAP NetWeaver 7.3
EHP1 Process Integration environment. We are trying to determine whether or not
we will require SAP Process Orchestration (PO - including BRM, BPM, etc.) for
implementation. The plan as of now is to use the AS Java only with the Advanced
Adapter Engine Extended as part of the SAP 7.3 EHP1 PI implementation.
In the end, the client would like to develop a SOA based environment that doesn’t
have point-to-point interfaces, but rather uses an ESR, common data types/message
structures. Can we do this with only AAEX, or would you recommend we look at PO
as well?
Any recommendations would helpful on whether Process Orchestration is needed or if
the Advanced Adapter Engine Extended installation should be able to handle
everything.
Thanks,
Ryan
