How to use Enterprise Services available in workplace

[former_member472138]

Hello Friends,

We have found some Enterprise Services to use for our existed business scenarios in ES Workplace.

My requirement here is: There are some interfaces which are running through websphere from source to destination. Now, we wanted to migrate those interfaces using PI 7.1, for which Can I use SAP provided Enterprise Services in ES Workplace? If so, how can I use those? What is the approach? Is there any process for this?

Kindly provide us blogs, pdfs or step by step procedure how to use?

Regards

PM.

Hi PM,

You'll need to do a lot more research on SDN on how Enterprise Services work & then maybe post more specific questions around it then we can help you better.

First identify what you want to replace with Enterprise Services, decide how you want to do the implementation (i.e. webservices, brokered PI exchange etc.). Then provide more detail on how Websphere fits into your landscape picture. Like the previous poster mentioned, you could also bypass PI altogether in your implementaion if you wanted to.

You'll then need to ensure that have all the relevant content in PI and the backend to make the Enterprise Service work (it depends on your backend version & whether you have the XI Content in XI/PI).

Once you have a better understanding of how Enterprise Services work & you are having problems in specific areas then we can assist you better.

Start with ES Wiki Home:

Hello PM,

It depends on the exact scenario and best fit of usage of ESs. The ESs listed out in the ES workplace are the different functionalities and specific to business scnearios.

So in your case, it is not a good idea to directly use the services available from ES workplace. You need to understand/analyse the exact functionalities etc

wrt your query on how to use ES from ESworkplace: All ESs are coming as EhPs.. so you need to import those EhPs in your SAP backend, and publish the services into ES Registry.. then you can consume without PI.

You can use PI, to have new developments or extending the existing ES using outside in approach. Otherwise PI is not required to execute the ES.

Following URLs will help you to understand these better

Simple use cases :

Specific to using PI or migrating to PI, need to have more details to respond. Because we can not just replace with ES..

Hope it helps
