First impressions of PI7.1 performance

Hi,

with SAP Exchange Infrastructure 3.0 SP18 there are lot of topics to face concerning performance. Especially during mass data transfers there are often performance problems using SAP XI. The result are long transfer times, low data transfer frequency and sometimes problems with the system itself (J EE Stack says "goodbye").

Has anybody already further experience with performance and stability of the new release SAP Process Integration 7.1? We plan to migrate to this platform and in view of this topic I would like to get some information about any existing problems using this new product.

Thank you very much for your help.

With kind regards.

Hi,

1) Enterprise Service repository (ESR) contains the design Registry

2) Includes significant high-volume message processing is supported by message processed in a single

Service call

3) Also importantly support for asynchronous messaging based Reliable Messaging (WS-RM) for both

brokered communication between two systems will be supported in this release.

4) Provide Service Registry benefits based on UDDI 3.0

Enterprise Service Repository

In PI7.1 ES Repository is at the heart of Enterprise SOA

ES Repository is really the master data repository of service objects for Enterprise SOA

It contains the definition & process of services

In ES Repository has two parts, one is the ES Repository and the other being the Services Registry

ES Repository (ESR) is really the master data repository of service objects for Enterprise SOA

Besides service definition the ES Repository also provides you with a central point for finding and

managing service metadata from different sources, including application deployments - this is

where the Services Registry comes in. The Services Registry is the UDDI part of the ESR which

enables service consumers to find services

The SAP XI Integration Repository used by process integration has become the basis of the central Enterprise Service Repository: powering Enterprise SOA and Service Enablement.

Objects in the ES Repository include:

Global Data Types (CCTS based)

Process Component Models

Executable Integration Processes (BPEL)

Integration Scenarios

Service Interfaces (Enterprise Services)

Interface Mappings

Enterprise Services built in the ES Repository

Enterprise Services includes:

Are built using a consistent enterprise model based on: GDTs, Process Components, and Business Objects.

Are based on open standards.

Are mapped to the Service Interface object in the ES Repository.

Global Data Types - Building blocks for Service Interfaces

Defined in the ES Repository

Defined company-wide based on open standards (ISO 15000-5, UN/CEFACT CCTS)

Reusable semantic building blocks for service interfaces and message types

Process Component Models

Drill down from high-level models to service interfaces and operations

Process component architecture models enable SOA governance

Process components expose on enterprise services, which are based on service operations

Web Services Reliable Messaging (WS-RM)

Asynchronous messaging (EO, EOIO) based on open WS standard

Support Business Activity Monitoring (BAM)

Embedded Event Infrastructure: Collecting, pre-filtering and publication of events across SAP and non-SAP systems.

Event handling: cast the local event to an event proxy to send out event messages to event Consumers.

Transaction SWF_BAM for event filtering via filter rules and event handling.

Enhancement for Mapping

Re-usable user defined functions.

Look-up function reads multiple fields.

Synchronous DB RFC lookups: Use graphical function to model look-ups.

Specify mapping parameters at configuration time.

Principle Propagation based on SAML

This feature uses the WS-RM protocol.

The implementation of this feature is based on the open standard SAML and can

be used with backend systems that support the SAML technology.

Forward user context from sender to receiver.

Authorization check in receiving system based on original user.

Support BAM Milestone Modeling (BPEL)

Sub-Process Calls: Integration Process Call,

User Interaction: User Decisions (initially not part of this project, but will be covered as well to draw the complete picture),

Alert Categories

Enhancements for Process Automation

Human interaction:

Integration paradigm (design/ configuration).

Generic user decision.

Language dependent texts for end-user display, enriched with variables.

WS-BPEL 2.0 adoption: Preview and implementation BPEL4People, BPEL-SPE Simple user defined functions can be configured directly in the process.

Hi,

PI 7.1 will be in rampup then - not global availibility

when it will be available you will get an upgreade guide as always

Perfromance wise there are couple of features have involved in PI 7.1 as compare to XI 3.0 SP 18.

Such as reusability of UDFs, Message processing and the folder concepts for well organized structure of all interfaces.

Currently PI 7.0 is only available for real time implementation. You could have the version of PI 7.1 from SDN, but that not for the real time implementation. Its limited only for individual usage.

There is huge difference between PI 7.0 and PI 7.1.

1. PI 7.0 is the part of Netweaver 2004s and PI 7.1 is key entity in eSOA.

2. PI 7.1 have various mapping Enhancements as well as reusability of UDFs across the mappings etc. which is not available in PI 7.0

/people/william.li/blog/2008/01/02/sap-pi-71-mapping-enhancements-series-share-user-defined-functions

3. PI 7.1 comes with the concept of folders for more flexibale and Organized way of developements.

/people/william.li/blog/2007/08/07/using-folders-in-pi-71 -- Folders in PI 7.1

4. Advanced adapter engine is used in PI 7.1, which have overcome the various communication related limitations of previous versions
