IWFND and IWBEP

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can Anyone provide the abbreviations of "IWBEP" and "IWFND" and what does it do ?

Regards,

Shiva

IW Stands for "Information Worker". Name for the team within SAP which developed Gateway. Chandra gave remaining abbreviations.

IWFND component does the Server Job: Example:

     Exposing/Registering the service through SICF

     Parsing and validating incoming requests from json/xml to ABAP and routing to IWBEP layer

     Data from IWBEP layer is converted into json/XML

IWBEP does backend enablement job.  Example:

     Service Builder

     Parent classes for DP classes and MP classes

Thanks

That's great! I was not aware about IW. Also earlier I remember that BEP was known as Backend Event Provider but as per https://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/92/75dc27df00473589000e4c8734fef7/content.htm it seems it is renamed to Business Enablement Provisioning (I guess so)

Hi Shiv,

Not sure about abbreviations.

I believe this IW_FND : belongs to SAP NWG hub system

IWBEP: backend system

These both can be installed on the same system as well. I ll suggest you to look at this write-up for more understanding

These are software components.

IW_BEP - Here BEP stands for Business Enablement Provisioning (https://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/92/75dc27df00473589000e4c8734fef7/content.htm )

IW_FND - Here FND stands for Foundation

Refer Embedded Versus Hub Deployment - SAP NetWeaver Gateway - SAP Library
