Hi,

Assume a scenario File-To- SAP R/3(Inbound Proxy).( Data is coming from file system to update the SAP Table in R/3)

Normally to communcate R/3 system we will use the IDOC or RFC Adapter.

In this scenario Proxy communcation is best. it doesn't required again to create IDOC or RFC to update ur r/3 system just generate the proxy in R/3 system and update the data into SAP.

Performance wise also it's good.

Same thing Outbound Proxy also SAP-to-Filesystem.

Regards,

Venu.

Krishna,

If your WAS >= 6.20 and if you want to communicate with SAP you can use Proxy. If you want to connect to any thrid party like JDBC, Mails, Files you need to use adapter which will run on Adapter framework.

So Proxies are interfaces that are generated in application systems to communicate with the Integration Server. Proxy ‘originals’ are located in the Integration Repository, not in the application system. For furthe info go through the help:

A central component of the adapter runtime is the Adapter Framework, with services for messaging, queuing, and security handling. The adapter framework supports the JCA standard (JCA: J2EE Connection Architecture) and communicates with Resource Adapters, which are either a component of SAP XI or are provided by SAP partners.
