As a performance standpoint which option is better Proxy OR SOAP or RFC?

[Former Member]

Just want to ask, which option suits as a performance standpoint Proxy OR SOAP or RFC?

[former_member183908]

As mentioned by Sahiti it depends on the type of integration which you are doing.

SAP ECC is involved in integration then PROXY is best when compared to RFC.

If any standard BAPI/RFC is readily available then of-course RFC is the only option and if application needs customization from scratch then obviously PROXY is the best.

If you have to consume thirdparty webservice then there is no other option except SOAP.

Thanks

Hi Naveed,

The answer is Proxy >> RFC >> SOAP

Proxy is having the best performance.

Hi,

It depends on the scenarion:

Suppose if you compare Proxy or RFC - Proxy is better (to Connect to SAP system)

If you want to connect to thirdparty through webservice then SOAP is better option.
