SAP NetWeaver Net IntigrationThe SAP Business Suite is built on SAP NetWeaver, which allows integration
between SAP and non-SAP components and supports integration with the
Internet thereby enabling collaborative business or c-business. In this image
you can see that the Business Suite offering combines R/3 as well as ERP
components and makes it one complete solution offering in a collaborativebusiness environment.
Apart from cross-industry solutions, SAP also offers 22 industry-specific or IS
solutions such as Automotive, Chemicals and more. As you see here, the SAP
Customer Services Network spreads across the entire Business Suite and aims
at ensuring that customers achieve maximum return on their investment withSAP Business Suite.

Sub-Area of SAP Net Weaver
SAP NetWeaver is an open and scalable infrastructure upon which the SAP
Business Suite is built. With its ability to integrate with the Internet, SAPs
NetWeaver enables collaborative business. As you see on this slide,
NetWeaver provides for a comprehensive integration and application
platform thereby delivering solutions with lower TCO (Total Cost of
Ownership) to the customer. We will see more of the NetWeaver features in

SAP Net Weaver ComponentsLet us explore the various components of SAP NetWeaver and how it is placed through
out the life cycle of software management NetWeaver enables
SAP Mobile Infrastructure
SAP Enterprise Portals
SAP Business Information Warehouse
Master Data Management
SAP Exchange Infrastructure
SAP Web Application Server.
It also provides a composite application framework with People integration,
Information integration, Process integration, and Application platform. People
Integration uses SAP Enterprise Portal to ensure that Employees get the information,
and access necessary for efficient work.
Using SAP Business Information Warehouse, Information Integration ensures that
structured and unstructured information is accessible. Next, to ensure that all your
business processes run smoothly through your heterogeneous system landscape, SAPexchange Infrastructure works with XML Data packages and workflows at the Process
Integration level. Finally, the Application platform supports J2EE and ABAP in a single
environment using SAP Web Application Server. This guarantees independence
between databases and operating systems. Thus SAP NetWeaver plays a vital role in
collaborative e-business.

Integrated System LandscapeSAP NetWeaver is a complete package of components that works in harmony
to provide solutions for customers integration requirements, where a singleplatform is used to integrate information and systems.
More and more SAP applications are making use of the SAP NetWeaver
Exchange Infrastructure and introducing NetWeaver XI to customer
landscapes. Some of the applications and components that use SAP
NetWeaver XI include Extended Applications like
xRPM Master Data Management Supplier
Relationship Management,
ERP Central Component
Customer Relationship Management
and SAP BusinessOne.

Integration & Flexibility with ESAEnterprise Services Architecture provides a blueprint for service-based,
enterprise-scale business solutions solutions that are adaptable, flexible,
and open, for lower TCO. Applications can be created on top of existing
enterprise applications, and served by Enterprise Services Architecture to
increase the value of those systems, and extend automation to new
processes.
ESA expands the concept of Web services to architecture for business
applications. While Web services represent only a technical concept, ESA isthe proposal for comprehensive and service-based business applications.
Enterprise Services Architecture: Supports all people that participate in a
business process inside and outside of the corporation, comprises all
information that is relevant for the business process, integrates all systems
that are important for the process. It does this regardless of whether thesystems involved are SAP or non-SAP, internal or external.

Properties & Structure of SAP Web AS
The functional architecture of SAP Web application server contains threeseparate levels: Presentation level, Application level and integration level. SAP
Web Application Server has a runtime environment for J2EE-based Java
programs, the SAP J2EE Engine. This is, in addition, to the traditional runtime
environment for ABAP programs, together with the database SAP Web
Application Server forms the Application Platform of SAP NetWeaver.
SAP Web application server offers:
A multilevel architecture with the SAP Web application server a reliable
tested runtime environment for ABAP and Java programs.
High scalability
An independence between Operating System and databases.
A Convenient development environment.Support for various protocols like HTTP and RFC, and
The Highest security standards for the execution of complex business process.

SAP Web AS as Part of Different SAP SystemYou have seen that the SAP Web Application Server is the application
platform of SAP NetWeaver. The functions of different SAP systems like ECC
6.0 and CRM can be divided into two categories namely, Basis functions and
Application functions. For example, if you take ECC, the SAP ERP central
component would be the Application function and the Web ApplicationServer would be the Basis function. In CRM, SAP CRM would be the
application function. Similarly, many SAP software components, such as, SAP
BI and SAP SCM, also use the SAP Web Application Server as its Basis
function.

Connecting Different SAP System To SAP XISAP XI connects to different SAP and Non-SAP systems. In this example of an
integration landscape at a customer site, an SAP R/3 version 3.1, an SAP R/3
version 4.6C, and a third party system are integrated through SAP XI. The
Integration Server also handles the connection to different Business Partners,
as well as, to a Public Marketplace.
Certain adapters are needed in situations where the Integration Server has to
exchange messages with an R/3 system. If you want to use SAP XI to realize a
cross-system integration process and if the systems involved are based on SAPWeb Application Server 6.20 or higher, you can use the new SAP XI
programming model.

Integrated SAP MDMLet us now explore how Master Data Management enables companies to
store, augment and consolidate Master Data, while ensuring consistentdistribution to all applications, and systems within the IT landscapes.
MDM uses the technological foundation of the exchange infrastructure, SAP
XI, to distribute the data.
Master Data Management features: Content Consolidation Master Data
harmonization and Central Master Data Management. SAP MDM supports a
step by step approach to collective Master Data maintenance in a distributed
and heterogeneous environment.

SAP EP Central User InterfaceSAP Enterprise Portal is a flexible, reliable, and secure solution that lets you
take advantage of all your information assets. Based on open standards, it
integrates any enterprise information source. All your SAP and non-SAPsystems, your data warehouse, desktop documents, Web contents, and Web
services are brought together in one single user interface. Portal content is
used to empower users to get relevant information, make effective decisions,
take appropriate action, and collaborate with others.
With SAP Enterprise portal, the portal also provides content designedspecifically to serve users in various industries and business areas. The SAP
Enterprise Portal provides a role-based, secure Web-based interface to all
information, applications and services. Portal roles structure and deliver
targeted content to each end user. A company can structure its business
processes and deliver business content according to the needs of certain usergroups.

Advantages Of SAP NetweaverSAP NetWeaver has a number of advantages:
Openness and extendibility: SAP NetWeaver features complete compatibility
and extendibility with IBM WebSphere and Microsoft .NET (technologies in
which companies have made significant investments.)
SAP Web Application Server achieves the Operating System and Database
independency for both ABAP and JAVA applications.Immediate Integration: SAP NetWeaver allows complete integration of
people, information, and business processes in companies.
Clear Roadmap: SAP NetWeaver is the technological foundation of all future
SAP Solutions.
Lower total cost of ownership: SAP Web AS protects customer investments. Itleverages existing IT investments by integrating different systems.

The participant should now have an understanding of SAP NetWeaver and the
strategic advantages of using this platform. The participant should also be
able to describe the components of SAP NetWeaver and explain how SAP
NetWeaver supports an organizations business processes.
