NetWeaver is an application builder from SAP for integrating business processes and databases from a number of sources while exploiting the leading Web services technologies.

Part of the company's mySAP product group, NetWeaver is getting a lot of industry attention as the first fully interoperable Web-based cross-application platform that can be used to develop not only SAP applications but others as well.

NetWeaver allows a developer to integrate information and processes from geographically dispersed locations using diverse technologies, including Microsoft's .NET, IBM's WebSphere and Sun's Java technologies.

SAP NetWeaver is SAP's integrated technology platform and is the technical foundation for all SAP applications since the SAP Business Suite.

SAP NetWeaver is marketed as a service-oriented application and integration platform. SAP NetWeaver provides the development and runtime environment for SAP applications and can be used for custom development and integration with other applications and systems.

SAP NetWeaver is built using open standards and industry de facto standards and can be extended with, and interoperate with, technologies such as Microsoft .NET, Sun Java EE, and IBM WebSphere.

SAP NetWeaver is the latest advancement in the mySAP Technology, which was developed as an Artificial Intelligence (AI) shell that accepts standard comments, literally as they are spoken, by domain experts.

Net Weaver in simple words is an application and Integration platform in which Web Services play a major role and which is open for Non-SAP applications and platform. It is used by organizations to improve productivity and enhance efficiency by making all the resources that are available in an enterprise to work collectively.

The core products that make up SAP NetWeaver include:

SAP Web Application Server

SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI)

SAP Enterprise Portal

SAP Master Data Management (MDM)

SAP NetWeaver Mobile

SAP Business Information Warehouse

Features

SOAP and Web Services

Interoperability with Java EE (WebSphere)

SAP NetWeaver is paltform to integrate various systems/ applications with the use of SAP XI technology.

SAP NetWeaver is a web-based, open integration and application platform that serves as the foundation for enterprise service-oriented architecture (enterprise SOA) and allows the integration and alignment of people, information, and business processes across business and technology boundaries. It utilizes open standards to enable integration with information and applications from almost any source or technology.

So Netweaver utilizes the SAP XI technology to integrate various systems.

Hi,

Netweaver is a *platform* (its not a technology) which is based on Enterprise service oriented architecture.

Netweaver contains the below technologies--

It has 3 layers--

1.Process integration - -> contains Exchange infrastructure(XI) and Business process management(BPM) technologies.

2.People integration --> Contains Enterprise portal (EP) technologies.

3.Information integration -->contains Business Intelligence(BI), Knowledge management(KM) and Master data management(MDM) technologies.

All the above technologies run on 2 engines called ABAP and JAVA engines.

The runtime of netweaver is Web application server(WAS).

Bharath.
