Switch from embedded to hub development

[former_member209944]

We just started the development of OData services. Because we don't have a Gateway Hub yet, we started with Embedded Deployment. In future we might switch to Hub Deployment with development in the Backend.

- Is it easy to switch locally deployed services to the Hub deployment?

- What steps need to be performed to switch a Embedded Deployed service to a Hub Deployed service?

Hi Paul,

switching from an Embedded Deployment scenario to a scenario with Hub Deployment is not a problem.

You will have basically to perform the following steps.

1. Install the new Hub and activate SAP NetWeaver Gateway
2. Create users in the SAP NetWeaver Gateway Hub for the backend users (for example by using SAP Identity Management or CUA or any other IdM solution for SAP ABAP systems)
3. You have to create a Trust relationship between between the new Hub and the backend so that SSO is working from the Hub to the Backend and from the Backend to the Hub.
4. On the hub: Create a system alias in the hub that points to you backend
5. On the backend: Create a Gateway alias entry that points to the new hub
6. Goto SEGW in your Backend / Embedded Deployment System and register and activate the service on the new hub

Best Regards,
