Cataloging message contracts

Former Member

Hi,

We are starting with a big integration project, and I'm searching for a tool to help us catalog our message contracts. We have about 150 applications, and we will have about 200 interfaces (estimated).

Actually all the integrations are done with our ERP using Oracle views. By this way, each application gets the data in different formats. For example, each view to the same "customer" repository can get different fields, format them with different types, length, etc...

Now, these integration will be done using XI web service interfaces (and much work on the legacy apps...)

We are trying to map all the interfaces to publish in XI, and the first step is to identify and standardize the contracts for each interface. With these contracts, SAP will publish information by the same schema that all the legacy will use to read the information. Our intention is to make only the interfaces really needed, for example, only one "customer" interface (or less "customer" interfaces as possible).

To help us on doing this is necessary to have a tool to classify each interface with its contract, and search for similar contracts (or contracts with similar information) to analyze each one.

If some of you know about this kind of tool (inside or outside SAP), please, send us a hint

thank you very much!

Hi all,

I think the Enterprise Repository Services is the answer for this matter. We are already looking for some features at IBM WSRR (Websphere Services Registry and Repository) and it seems to be very usefull too.

Thanks!
