Webservice between Web Dispacther and NW

[Former Member]

Hi,

In the current server architecture, the SAP NW server is sit their local environment or called as DMZ where it is not communicate with the Internet. It have a SAP Web Dispatcher that able to communicate with public. I developed a EJB and expose it as a Webservice. So for inbound request, it will from public to Web Dispatcher then it route to SAP NW and look for the Webservice.

Would like to ask how about the response back for the request. As I know Web Dispatcher is for inbound only. The response is it directly from SAP NW to public? Then for this case due to the server is in DMZ, it unable to connect to external network. Or will it go through Web Dispatcher to response the request?

Thanks.

Hi Adrian,

Communication between external system and NW ( under DMZ) will happen with WebDispatcher for sure. It depends what kind of programming is being done for the Web Service.

I see. So if everything will go through Web Dispatcher then is great.

It actually a Stateless EJB, that will use JCO to call the backend to retrieve a value. The EJB I expose it as a Webservice.

Thanks.
