„5.1 Where We Are Today with SAP NW PI 7.1: As already mentioned the new SAP NetWeaver Process Integration
(PI) 7.1 release is one of the key building blocks of the enterprise SOA technology offered by SAP NetWeaver. It can
become the cornerstone of customers’ SOA strategy. Used for middleware consolidation in customer landscapes, this
release will mainly leverage functionalities for service enablement, and service and process orchestration.
„There will be no major changes from an architectural point of view, but the underlying application server will be based
on the JEE5 and ABAP server. This also means that all the improvements in sizing and memory consumption will also be
applied to the Process Integration capabilities.
„With this release we bring to market the Enterprise Services Repository and Registry. The Enterprise Services
Repository is the central SOA repository for storing all your SOA artifacts based on particular business semantics. The
ESR is enhanced with objects that will enable customers to service enable their applications based on SAP’s process
component modeling methodology. The Services Registry contains information in the form of an yellow pages to have
one central place where all the services in the customers landscape can be discovered. The Services Registry is based
on a UDDI V3.0 server. This is enhanced further with business classifications based on the same methodology that is
used at design time.
„PI 7.1 will deliver the infrastructure needed for BAM particularly to support event provisioning and event correlation.
This enables customers to turn their local events in their applications into global events and provide the possibility to
react upon key events that is relevant for their specific business.

„SAP NW PI provides the following key tools:

„Enterprise Services Repository and Services Registry:
The Enterprise Services Repository and Services Registry is the central location to define, access, and manage SOA assets such as
service interfaces. The Enterprise Services Repository provides a central modeling and design environment for creating, aggregating,
and using services and processes. The Services Registry supports the publication, classification, and discovery of services (SAP,
partner, or custom-defined) across the IT landscape. Furthermore, the Services Registry enables the management and governance of
services.
„Integration Directory:
The Integration Directory is the central tool to configure the processing of messages, such as the systems and external communication
partners that are involved in the process, the routing rules that govern the message flow between these entities, as well as the settings
for the communication incl. security.
„Integration Server:
The Integration Server is the runtime environment to provide secure, standards-based, reliable, and scalable communication between
provider and consumer applications. The Business Process Engine as part of the Integration Server takes care of cross component
Business Process Management and handles processes where the message flow between different business applications is dependent
on several messages or on time and business actions or reactions. The Advanced Adapter Engine provides built-in mediation
capabilities to reconcile incompatible protocols, structural maps, schema, and data formats between provider and consumer
applications. The Advanced Adapter Engine supports reliable transport and queuing capabilities to provide mechanisms for handling
different quality-of-service levels at runtime, as well as validation of payloads against an XML schema. The Advanced Adapter Engine
provides flexible deployment options: It can be deployed either together with the Integration Server or in separate, non-central
installations, such as in remote subsidiaries or closer to applications in secure locations.

 Changed Adapter Framework API in
SAP NW PI 7.1

Adapter Framework API has changed in SAP NW Process Integration 7.1

„ Reduction of references
„ Introducing facade technology
„ Reduction of (parts of) packages and classes
„ Runs on Java EE 5
„ However the Adapter Framework programming model has not changed:
„ Message layer (addressing, quality of service, etc.)
„ Adapter Framework modules
„ CPA access
„ Same transactional model
„ Same admin model
„ Thus changes for adapters and adapter modules from SAP XI 3.0 / SAP PI 7.0 to
SAP NW PI 7.1 are merely syntactically (further details in SAP note 1004000)
„ All adapters and adapter modules developed by SAP run out-of-the-box on the new
Adapter Framework of SAP NW PI 7.1
„ Re-certification of third party adapters for SAP NW PI 7.1 is offered by SAP
Integration and Certification Center
