SAP HANA Cloud Platform, integration service – PI Adapter Certification (HCI-PI-ADK)

SAP HANA Cloud Platform, integration service (SAP HCI) supports end-to-end process integration across cloud-based and on-premise applications (cloud-cloud and cloud-on-premise integration). It provides a set of adapters to meet connectivity needs. For example, the SOAP adapter allows you to exchange SOAP messages through SAP HCI, or the sftp adapter supports the exchange of files with servers. These adapters can be configured in integration flows to enable connectivity between sender and receiver systems.

You develop new SAP HCI adapter types to extend the connectivity with remote systems and services. To further enhance the connectivity options of SAP HCI, you can develop new adapters tailored along specific requirements. Once the adapter development process has been finished, you can open the configuration user interface for the new adapter type in the integration flow editor of Integration Designer.

To develop new adapters, you use Apache Camel. You specify the detailed set of adapter attributes as component metadata.
