HI
A goal of the Exchange Infrastructure is to provide a single point of integration for all systems, SAP and non-SAP, inside and outside the corporate boundary.
SAP XI is an integration technology and platform u2026
u2022For SAP and non-SAP applications
u2022For A2A and B2B scenarios
u2022For asynchronous and synchronous communication
u2022For cross-component and Business Process Management
The focus of SAP Netweaveru201904 is the integration of people, information and process in one solution. XI represents the process integration layer of the NetWeaver Stack, and is a crucial element of the Enterprise Service Architecture.
Advantages
XI is open and flexible; it uses web standards such as Web Services Description Language (WSDL), XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) and SOAP messaging for describing objects and communicating with other systems. Generally, it use open, XML based standards for integration.
Benefits
u2022Leverage existing investments
u2022Arrive at new integration landscape in an evolutionary manner.
u2022Allow easy and non-disruptive addition of new services and processes.
u2022SAP XI mainly drives to reduce the TCO by reducing the integration and maintenance cost of the system
u2022SAP XI provides a central repository for all the interfaces.
SAP Applications Using XI
The following applications now use XI:
u2022xApps (Such as xRPM, Resource and Program Management)
u2022MDM (SAP Master Data Management)
u2022SRM (SAP Supplier Relationship Management)
u2022CRM (SAP Customer Relationship Management)
u2022BI (SAP Business Intelligence)
u2022R/3 Enterprise (for Industry Standard Support).
Component Overview
The XI is not a single component, but rather a collection of components that work together flexibly to implement integration scenarios.
The architecture includes a) components to be used at design time b) components to be used at configuration time and c) components to be used at runtime.
XI components include:
System Landscape Directory: a central repository of information about software and systems in the data center.
The Integration Builder: A client-server framework for accessing and editing two stores of Shared collaboration knowledge.
The Integration Repository: For the design and development of Interface, Process, and Mapping objects that are used to implement IS. (For the products to be used at design and development time. IR is done at SAP, Partner and Customer site. Shipped along with content.)
The Integration Directory: For configuring scenarios from the IR in the concrete customer landscape.
Integration Server: This is the actual run time of XI. It is the central processing engine of the XI. All messages whether SAP or non-SAP, A2A or B2B, regardless of backend technology or vendor, are processed in a consistent way. It comprises of
u2022The Adapter Engine running on the JAVA stack and consisting of many JCA adapters.
u2022The Integration Engine running on the ABAP stack which process message in a consistent way using a series of pipeline steps.
u2022The Business Process Engine on the ABAP stack where the Integration process or BPM are executed.
Central Monitoring: To monitor all components comprehensively at run time.
Integration Engine: Runtime environment of the SAP XI that receives XML messages and after processing them in the pipeline transfers them to the receiver systems.
Adapter Engine: A Java Connector Architecture (JCA) compliant adapter engine for connecting backend systems to the XI.
