New SAP NetWeaver Process Integration Release Planned for 2007
 
|
|
Introduction
This year, SAP plans to ship a new release of the Process Integration functionalities of SAP NetWeaver. The current plan is to start the ramp-up of SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 in the second half of 2007. Depending on whether the target ramp-up KPIs are met, general availability will be around half a year later. This SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 release will be a natural evolution of the Process Integration capabilities of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s), which are based on SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure. It will be one of the key building blocks of SAP NetWeaver’s enterprise SOA technology. We believe that the Process Integration capabilities will be the cornerstone of our customers' SOA strategy. These capabilities will continue to be used heavily for middleware consolidation in customer landscapes, and will become the SOA backbone. This release will mainly leverage functionalities for service enablement and service and process orchestration.Functional Highlights
Some of the planned 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
More information
More details can be found in the PI 7.1 presentation about the major new capabilities that are currently planned for SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1. Further details will be provided in upcoming blogs in the near future. Furthermore, you are encouraged to attend upcoming events such as TechEd to learn more about the new Process Integration release.Credits
I like to thank Sindhu Gangadharan and Thomas Volmering as well as the entire enterprise SOA product management team for their contribution for this blog and the presentation above.

Hi Jim,
SAP NW PI 7.1 will go through the regular ramp-up procedure, i. e. call for nominations have already started, during which the account executives will contact their customers in order to nominate them for ramp-up. Unfortunately there won't be a preshipment of SAP NW PI 7.1 available, sorry. However, you are more than welcome to join the ramp-up; for this, just get in contact with your SAP account executive or partner manager.

[Reply]
Hi Kanan,
first sorry for my ultra-late reply. Regarding your question I can give you the following information:
In SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 the ES Repository leverages ARIS tooling capabilities to enhance the ES Repository with enterprise service modeling (process component architecture). Built on this integrated tooling SAP has developed a SAP specific modeling methodology for service enabled business applications. Here are some use cases:
- Process component architecture models in ES Repository enable SOA governance and help to understand the business semantics of enterprise services in the business process platform.
- The SAP methodology addresses the need for service-based reference models. Therefore, the ES Repository supports the drill down to standards based service interface design (WSDL) and SAP’s global data type library.
- Content in the ES Repository can be enhanced and customers may use the integrated modeling capability of the ES Repository to specify their own process component architecture down to enterprise services. Reference content in the ES Repository can be exported to ARIS for SAP NetWeaver for alignment to business level models and planning (read-mode).
- Traditional business analysis modeling methods (like VAC, EPC, …) are available in SAP's enterprise modeling offering (ARIS for SAP NetWeaver) only, not in the ES Repository as such. In ARIS, implementation content from SAP Solution Manager, that describe configuration variants of mySAP processes as well as ES Repository process component models that describe services and how they can be used (for e.g. composing new processes) can be algned for planning and analysis for process requirement definition.
I hope this late info still helps a little bit.

[Reply]
Hi Kanan,
yes, upgrade paths will be provided from SAP XI 3.0 to PI 7.1 as well as from PI 7.0 to PI 7.1. I. e. in principle all the objects from the Integration Repository will be transferred to the Enterprise Service Repository and can be re-used there. The same is almost true for the Integration Directory, however there is a restriction due to the move to the new JEE server. This move made several changes necessary in the adapter framework, however these changes are pure syntactical. There are a lot of advantages in the new adapter framework, e. g. much fewer interfaces for vendors who want to develop 3rd party adapters; but the disadvantage is that the existing 3rd party adapters as well as customer specific modules have to be adjusted to the new adapter framework. Of course, SAPs own adapters will be adjusted by SAP. And there will be the possibility to run an older adapter engine (SAP XI 3.0 / PI 7.0) in a PI 7.1 environment in order to give vendors and customers time to adjust their adapters and adapter modules. I hope this late info still helps.
Best regards, Udo

- WSDL Imports
2007-05-09 23:24:25 Sebastian Simon Business Card [Reply]
Hi!
Its nice to see the new features, especially the new improvements in high volume scenarios and WS-RM would be appreciated by many customers.
Another obstacle in my current project with Inside-Out WSDL Development are the limitations in namespace length and non support of xsd-choice datatypes for imported WSDL Artifacts and XSD's
Are there any improvements in Handling that in the new Release?- WSDL Imports

Hi Sebastian,
first sorry for my late response, with SAPPHIRE in Vienna there were too many things going on in parallel. Regarding your questions I have good news for you: In SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 the namespace length has been increased to 255. And already with SAP NetWeaver '04 (SAP XI 3.0) SP16 / SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SP07 there has been some improvements regarding the use of external definitions: You can now import WSDL documents in rpc-style format; for more information you can check the Release Notes in the SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/9844428e9cbe30e10000000a155106/frameset.htm.If there is anything missing, you can open a customer message on the SAP Support Portal.

1) Does SAP NetWeaver come with work flow and business rules construction?
Two examples:
1) From mapping stand point
Source element = "S-quantity"
Target element = "T-TotalCost"
If S-quantity > 5 => T-TotalCost = T-TotalCost x (.90)
2) From work flow stand point
Using the same source and target elements:
If S-quantity > 50 => email production manager

1) Is a classical mapping use case, i. e. you can use for example the "if" function which is one of many standard mapping functions provided within the Integration Repository.
2) Is a classical routing use case, i. e. you can use for example the content based routing functionality, which can be configured in the Integration Directory.

The Guided Procedures tool based on Netweaver Java workflow allows you to do workflow like that as well as something more complex like bpm.
You'll find it as part of NW04s and its documentation is available on help.sap.com or in the SDN Composition Environment area.- sample or demo pages
2007-05-10 11:01:33 Philip Tham Business Card [Reply]
Thank you. I am trying to evaluate if NetWeaver can do the job for my client Or we need to purchase another tool to do work flow and business rules.
Can you tell me: Is NW04s equal to NetWeaver PI 7.1?
Can you also tell me: Is NetWeaver PI 7.1 = NetWeaver AS (NetWeaver Application Server)?
Can you help me to understand this as well?
Is NetWeaver equal to Enterprise Services Workplace?

Philip- sample or demo pages
2007-05-10 14:26:41 Andre Truong Business Card [Reply]
NW04s defines the application server technology platform of SAP:
- one version based on the famous Abap Basis. In NW04s the Abap basis base stack version is 7.00. That's the famous abap workbench, SAPGUI, and the client/server architecture
- one version based on J2EE 1.4 specs. That the one that integrates Enterprise Portal, UWL, KM, CAF, VC, Adobe Document Server. All integrated in one technology stack you access via http://server:50100/irj/portal
PI 7.1 is definitely running on top of SAP Netweaver AS. Part of it run on top the Abap AS especially the runtime and parts run on top of the Java AS espcially the Design time.
but if you look for a workflow technology from SAP you've got different options from SAP depending on your requirements and application architecture:
- if you run 4.6c and want workflow tied to HR org data, you have SAP Business Workflow right there within the 4.6c
- if you face cross-departmental, cross-functional or cross-system workflow or process flow to provide tasks or notification to different people via the web, you might want to use Guided Procedures (java based workflow/BPM engine) or PI7.1 (abap based workflow/BPM engine). The choice between GP and PI is a whole different story by itself. The criterias are the skillset available, easy to learn and use, budget, criticial aspects of the process to enable,...but if you ask my preference i'd say GP because it's easier to work with.

Thanks Andre,
The answers were very helpful.
New questions:
1) What do you see when you click on the link:
http://server:50100/irj/portal
2) Is GP a stable and mature for production usage?
3) Do you have client(s) that we can talk to that have implemented GP?
4) Do we need any other special liciense to use GP beside NetWeaver?
5) Does SAP Business Workflow right there within the 4.6c support Budgeting data as well?
6) Can we hook SEEBEYONG eWay adapter with NetWeaver? If there any special liciense we need to purchase from SAP to make this happen?
7) We need to hire an independent contractor to do a budgeting and recovering functional analysis, can you suggest a source for us to start looking at that?- sample or demo pages

Hello Philip,
For an overview of all our workflow tools in NetWeaver please see this blog:
https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/4703
In answer to your questions:
* GP is stable when used for its intention which is light-weight processes. For processes that have super long run times (weeks to months) and processes that are auditable, GP might not be the best choice.
* We do have other people who have used GP...I would recommend you post a forum question to talk with specific customers.
* No special license is reuired.
* SAP Business workflow is on 4.6c - I do not know if budgeting workfows are provided outof the box - the blog above will have a link to the online help where you can check.
* Seeburger is a separate licenses - you can contact seeburger for details.

2007-05-07 04:03:47 Volker Kolberg Business Card [Reply]
Hi Udo!
Good news. However how do I have to position CAF against PI. Does CAF use the enterprise services stored in the ES repository?
How is it technically implemented as of now, that is which service repository does CAF rely on currenty (XI 3.0)?
Thanx!

Volker- PI 7.1 and CAF

[Reply]
Hello Volker,
To answer your question, CAF does not rely on XI 3.0. In the Composition Environment, CAF will be able to access the repository and the registry. From a positioning standpoint, the scenario will determine if CAF will do all point to point, or if you want to go through XI for various reasons, which could be goverance and central monitoring, enhanced mapping and adapter usage. Also, XI have very strong support for async scenarios. I don't think it will be CAF against PI. I think sometimes CAF could use PI for hte service call, and sometimes it will do point to point connections.

[Reply]
Dear Gianni,
one of the web service standards supported with SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 are Web Service Reliable Messaging (WS-RM) as a standard for asynchronous SOAP based messaging. WS-RM will be also used for another new feature in SAP NetWeaver PI 7.1, namely the SAML based principle propagation which allows to propagate the user credentials from the sender to the receiver system. Furthermore Web Service Policy will be supported with SAP Netweaver PI 7.1. Web Service Policy describe the characteristics of a Web service, for example, the detailed security settings.
I hope this info helps already a little bit. We'll provide more information about the supported web service standards in the near future, for example in upcoming blogs.

- BPM vs. GP
2007-05-02 00:22:06 Dipankar Saha Business Card [Reply]
Hi,
As per the presentation on SAP PI 7.1 it seems the BPM engine in PI 7.1 has been enhanced to a great extent and now it'll support even interactive process steps like human task based on BPEL 2.0. But SAP also has Guided Procedure as part of the composition environment (or CAF) which can also be used to model interactive processes and looks like as a parallel technology to XI-BPM. But as of now there is no interportability between XI-BPM and CAF-GP and though BPM processes can be modeled using BPEL there is no such standard underlaying the GP process modeling, or there is no modeling activity in GP - only development/implementation as of now. Is there any strategy SAP has to converge XI-BPM and CAF-GP at one point of time or atleast provide an interportability between these two layers? If not what's the modeling environment for GP to be provided (like ARIS for BPM)?
Thanks,
Dipankar- BPM vs. GP

[Reply]
Hello Dipankar,
Currently GP is focused on light-weight human focsued processes. It does not support things like collect patterns, splitting messages, and the more system-centric activities that ccBPM currently supports. There is a long term strategy for SAP to converge both system-centric (ccBPM) and human-centric (GP) into a single workspace. Our future plans will be discussed in more detail at TechEd.

Ginger- BPM vs. GP
2007-08-13 03:00:38 Dipankar Saha Business Card [Reply]
Hi Ginger,
Thanks for your answer. I'm still in doubt regarding the modeling considerations which I mentioned above. ccBPM is based on a standard called BPEL while CAF GP doesn't follow any such standards as its base. Again we can model a ccBPM process in ARIS though there is no way to "model" a CAF GP process. What we can do there is design and implementation. So can we really model a GP process in future release? If yes when approx. that may be available to customers/partners?
Thanks,

- performance!!
2007-05-01 01:23:28 Daniel Koch Business Card [Reply]
hi there, we have implemented XI/Pi 7.0 in banking environment for legacy to CRM/FS-BP integration.
we ask for only one major improvement: faster throughput with less resources!
while the functional enhancements and innovation provide for improved and better product features, we feel that SAP XI/PI still lacks in performance.
for "low" transaction volumes we need to cater for 33 TPS (go look at the SAPS required to support that)
in the banking world we deal with large batch-files...by running your adapter framework in the Java-VM it puts a large constraint on us, how to handle millions of records without killing the Java-heap in the JVM?
give us 500 (MAX) milliseconds request/response times to support high-transactional environments (ex CICS/Cobol on zOS mainframes)- performance!!

[Reply]
Hi Daniel,
with SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 we already do the next steps regarding high volume support and less sizing, e. g. with the local processing in the adapter engine. With this in general 500 milliseconds request/response time is supported easily, i. e. minimum of two messages roundtrip per second. And for the future there are further improvements planned regarding more performance and less sizing.

Hi Satish,
yes, SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 provides a lot of impovements. One example is the high volume support: The adapter engine will be enhanced in order to provide mapping and routing functionality. With this it will be possible to by-pass the Integration Server in certain scenarios, so that a direct adapter to adapter communication is supported. A lot of further examples can be found in the attached presentation.

Thats is what we have been waiting for long time about high volume processing. PI 7.1 should be make PI as one number EAI tool.
By the way i want to have option which is not their currently in XI/PI SP19.
Scenario: when we want to import or export an external defination we have to option to select the location of the file but it always point to local system. Problem comes when you are accessing via citrix or VPN then it shows local VPN or Citrix desktop rather our local system where we have file to be imported or exported.
so we should have an option to select from remote system also. not only this suppose we have External definations which are used commonly are placed in common system other than our local system then we can not select it as it only shows local system only.

there are some new cool features regarding importing of external definitions, e. g. with SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1 you will be able to do a mass import of external definitions. The following formats will be supported: DTD, XSD, WSDL. With this you will be able to save a lot of time. However, there is currently nothing planned regarding the import of files accessing via Citrix or VPN, sorry; but I hope the effort in copying the files to a local share is not too big.

when I try to generate the ABAP proxy for my interface definition(external definition downloaded), I get an error message saying that "PROXY GENERATION TERMINATED WSDL ERROR <extension> NOT SUPPORTED".
This is because ABAP does not support <extension> tags when it tries to convert XSD data types to ABAP data types.
Now my question is with all these great new features in PI7.1, will this limitation be taken care and can we generate the ABAP proxies even though we have <extension> tags in our external definitaions.
