S4HANA..When SOA and when OData?

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus!

    I'm participating in a new S4HANA On Premise implementation,and we will need to integrate to 3rd party services. We don't have HCI or PI/PO, so we will have point to point integrations. Which is the best approach? SOA or OData? Is SOA really now dead in S4?

We have a the Gateway in hub mode, so OData services would go to the Frontend server and then to the backend...but SOA services can be exposed directly from the backend, this would accelerate the response?

That's my big doubt...in which scenarios are SOA the best approach and in which OData?

Thanks a lot...your help will be appreciate.

Regards!
