Can we use Direction Connection Feature of PI 7.1?

[Former Member]

In our scenarios client's legacy systems want to use Web Services.

ECC 6.0 -> PI 7.1 -> 3rd party Legacy (Web Service)

Can we use Direction Connection feature and use WS runtime adapter of PI 7.1 to connect these 2 systems?

Thanks a lot

At present, this mechanism can only fully propagate the configuration data to those back-end systems that are based on AS ABAP.

So it has to be SAP to SAP scenario !!

Hi Praveen,

>>Direct Connection is used when we are not using the adapters, Proxies

No direct connections are generally good when you want the processing to happen faster and no mapping is required in PI..Proxies is just one of the case...

Hi Chanakya,

>>Direction Connection

I guess you meant Direct connection... Yes you can but there wont be any message mapping feature of PI available in that case.

Check this article

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b00bbb77-75bc-2a10-6b9a-a6f8161515a6

as per it

Services such mappings, dynamic receiver determination, ccBPM (as provided by the middleware) are no longer available during the message exchange.
