Hi,
EP is a portal - so no integration here - only different user interface (via WWW)
XI is a middleware tool so you can do real integration with it

Enterprise Portals and XI are different concepts altogtehter.
Enterprise Portals are a means to provice a WebBased GUI for your multiple SAP systems.
XI is an EAI tool, a middleware that is used to integrate processes.
EP is used fo real time purposes as this is user action based while XI is process oriented and is more of integrating appllication processes.

Hi Khannan,,
I think your question is something like...you are expecting the one real time scenario which XI can use as middleware in that.
Let me explain a sample scenario...Let's take an example i have sone source file which i need to change the format and i need to sendt another system whic is in remote place..I can use middleware as xi and xi will take care of this.
Sour format:
First name:xyz
Middle name:lmn
Target format:
Name:XYZ,lmn
Hope my examaple will clear you.
Please let me know if u have any queries..!
Thanks and Regards,
Chandu.

Hi Rajesh,
EP is like interface for the application.
EP Purpose
The EP usage type contains the following components:
Portal: Serves as the front end of SAP NetWeaver, offering a single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside the enterpriseall integrated into a single user experience.
Knowledge Management: Provides role-based access to unstructured information from various data sources. The unstructured information can be in many forms, such as text documents, presentations and HTML files, and can be viewed via iViews in the portal.
Knowledge Management makes use of the standalone engine TREX to perform search and classification operations.
Collaboration: Provides services that help communication and cooperation among colleagues and others in the enterprise. Services include virtual rooms, groupware integration, asynchronous and real-time collaboration tools.
Guided Procedures: Provides a framework for modeling and managing processes that involve access to multiple backend systems. It enables runtime collaboration and execution of ad-hoc items, as well as invocation of different types of applications and services within a process. The framework implements role-based access to tools, resources and process steps.
XI is a middleware that we use for data integration.
