Replacing SAP Views?

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement where in the business is accessing SAP data via SAP Views which is directly accessing SAP Database. SAP Views were implemented long back considering the

-performance

-the volume of data

-and the number of tables that needs to be accessed

Considering, this is not a good approach of reteriving data. Is there any better design approaches that can be replaced for this SAP views.

We evaluated using RFC, but since RFC talks to databases and retrives the data..it took much longer time to perform the transaction than the current SAP View mechanism..

Please let me know incase you have any suggestions to overcome this design limitation,

Regards,

Hi Vinayak,

if your R/3 system has WAS inside, just use ABAP proxies instead of RFC for a better performance and stability. Implement asynchronous scenario (may be with acknowledgement) to avoid synchr timeouts and hold the messages restartable.
