Portal UME as user management for SAP Netweaver Gateway

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We would like to know if we can use Java UME as user management for SAP Netweaver Gateway.

In our landscape, we are also planning to implement UCES for which Java UME (Portal UME) is planned to be configured.

Now, we are also planning to implement Mobile services for Utilities end customers for which we intend to follow SAP Netweaver Gateway approach.

Now, as these are 2 different set of development approaches and as we would like to have one common User Management approach for both the types of developments, could you please comment on the feasibility of using Java UME as user management for NW GW approach.

Thanks & Regards,

Anurag Gwari

Hi Anurag, by SAP NW Gateway approach do you mean using Multichannel foundation for Utilities which is based on SAP NW Gateway? If yes, than I'm not sure why you need to implement UCES because MCF offers a foundation for both mobile app development as well as web site or desktop application development.

Now to have a common user management approach you can use a product from SAP called SAP IDM which i know can integrate various user stores incl. java ume or abap based user management.

Hi Yevgen,

Thanks for the reply!!!

Yes, we are aware of the MFU concept but in our scenario we already have UI developed for mobile applications and it is integrated with legacy systems.

Now, we just want to integrate those existing mobile applications with SAP ISU as backend as the customer doesn't want to change the UI interfaces.

Moreover, UCES has already been in the scope and if the customer wants it, we really can't do anything about it.

BR,

Anurag
