Urgent: XI 3.0 vs XI 7.0

[Former Member]

Hey,

I'm planning to attend the TechEd by this year and I do want to write the exam on XI 7.0 is also.

Can Anybody tell me what is the difference between XI 3.0 Vs XI 7.0 versions??!

And the what would be the expected questions from XI 7.0 Version?!!

Do the needful.

Cheers.,

Hi,

No Major difference as such...

1. All new features for XI 7.0 are almost same as for XI 3.0 at least till SPS 19.

Some differences are as follows:

• Adapter Enhancements like JMS, JDBC, Oracle-JDBC and CIDX Enhancements

• New Conversion Agent,

• Receiver Determination Enhancements

• Multi mapping

• User defined enhancements

• Unbounded Processes (Integration Processes).

2. One more difference is the ABAP stack (which is 7.0 and not 6.40) but from the developer point of view there is nothing new.

3. PI 7.0 = XI 7.0 i.e. PI 7.0 can also be called as XI 7.0

4. For each SP in XI3.0 there is a corresponding SP being released for PI (XI 7.0). A comparison of the service packs in 2004 and 2004s:

In 2004 - In 2004s

SP12 & lower = SP04

SP13 + 14 = SP05

SP15 = SP06

SP16 = SP07

SP17 = SP08

SP18 = SP09

Hi

<b>diffrence between XI 3.0 Vs XI 7.0 versions??!</b>

one (big) of them is ABAP dynpro for example

The core difference is that XI 3.0 uses NW04 stack and PI (XI) 7.0 uses the NW04s stack,

As far as Integration functionality is concerned, they are pretty much the same, as SAP have been launching the same functionalities in the equivalent versions of the support packs. for eg NW04s sp10 => NW04 sp19.

XI3.0 is based on WAS(web application server)6.40 - NW2004

PI7.0 is based on WAS(web application server)7.0 - NW2004's

Check the following threads

Adapter Enhancements in JMS,JDBC,.Conversion. Multimapping.. userdefined functions...

PI 7.0 is similar to XI 3.0. There are no relevant changes.

But we can look out for major changes in PI 7.1.

Ref: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/xi -> Get Ready for New Process Integration Capabilities to know more about it.
