AWS Adapter 1.0.1 released – SQS & S3 enhancements

AWS Adapter 1.0.1 Released – SQS & S3 Enhancements

The latest version of our AWS adapter for SAP PO brings you new features.

With the latest version you can subscribe to S3 event notifications with SAP PO. When an S3 object changes, is newly uploaded or deleted, SAP PO can receive this information through a sender channel.

The channel then generates a message that can be processed by SAP PO with all metadata and the content of the S3 object.
When an S3 object is deleted or lost (RRS/Onezone Storage), the adapter generates a message with all details about the deletion of the object.

Another excellent feature is the fixing of the 256 Kb payload limit for AWS SQS messages. Our new version of the adapter can also send and receive messages with a payload larger than 256 Kb. The messages are automatically saved as an S3 object and only a link to it is used as an SQS message (as recommended by AWS via Extended SDK extension).
A recipient of the message can then “pick up” the message using the S3 link.

The adapter enables this automatically without any further development effort.

For feature completeness, we also automatically support as new S3 storage options via channel configuration (One-Zone Infrequent and Intelligent tiering).

Keep it AWS(ome) with our AWS adapter for SAP PO!

SAP PO RESTful Adapter with OpenAPI 3.0 support

SAP PO RESTful Adapter with OpenAPI 3.0 support

In addition to Swagger 2.0 (since 2017), our RESTful Adapter for SAP PO now also supports the Open API 3.0 specification (https://www.openapis.org).

The OpenAPI standard is the most widely used standard for describing public or private APIs, but unfortunately it is not directly supported by SAP PO.

Our adapter makes publishing APIs in OpenAPI format extremely easy and shields the developer from unnecessary and costly and error-prone configuration work such as path routing, JSON transformation and response handling. Only the actual API implementation with the usual SAP PO tools (mapping, routing) is then necessary.

Open API definitions can be used in an “API first” approach to generate the ISR interface. The adapter can provide an API via Swagger UI as OpenAPI 2.0 (Swagger) or OpenAPI 3.0 description for consumers, testers and developers.

APIs often change or are extended. Also on this you have a very easy update possibility by simply re-generating the interface and testing with the existing Swagger UI.

SAP PO AWS Adapter – advanced S3 archiving and encryption functions

SAP PO AWS Adapter – advanced S3 archiving & encryption functions

With the 1.0.12 release of the AWS Adapter for SAP Process Orchestration, we support the following additional storage and security options.

Storage Archiving

With this release, we have also added Glacier and DeepArchive as storage types for PUT operations in receiver channels.

Additionally, the adapter supports a new polling mode for S3 sender channels. This allows S3 objects to be archived instead of deleted after processing. The S3 object can be moved to another bucket for archiving with a new storage type (e.g.: Glacier or DeepArchive or the standard storage types). With this we support 3 types of S3 channels:

  •  Polling and deletion of S3 objects after processing
  •  Polling and archiving of S3 objects after processing (New *)
  • Reacting to S3 events and processing the S3 object

Security

We now support AWS KMS based key management for server side encryption in S3. With AWS KMS, custom keys can be managed and used for “At REST” encryption of S3 objects (instead of using AWS managed master keys).

KaTe Google Cloud Platform Adapter for SAP PO now supports proxy connections

KaTe Google Cloud Platform Adapter for SAP PO now supports proxy connections

Our Google Cloud Platform Adapter for SAP PO now supports connections via an enterprise proxy.

In many corporate networks, outbound traffic goes through a proxy server. This setup is often needed to access external services like Google Cloud Storage or Pub/Sub. Previously, integrating SAP PO with Google Cloud services in such networks was difficult. Now, with this new feature, this issue is resolved.

The adapter configuration can now include an HTTP proxy, with or without proxy authentication. All connections, including OAuth2 authentication and data transfer, are routed through the proxy. This ensures that businesses using a proxy for security or network reasons can still access Google Cloud services safely.

The Google Cloud Platform Adapter for SAP PO allows companies to integrate SAP with Google Cloud services like Storage and Pub/Sub, even if the traffic passes through a proxy server. This update ensures businesses can use cloud technologies while meeting their network and security requirements.

In summary, this enhancement makes it easier for businesses with complex network setups to integrate SAP PO and Google Cloud services securely and efficiently.

KaTe AWS Adapter for SAP PO now also supports GraphQL (AWS Appsync)

KaTe AWS Adapter for SAP PO now also supports GraphQL (AWS Appsync) ​

The latest release, version 1.0.17, of the AWS Adapter for SAP PO includes integration with AWS AppSync.

AWS AppSync allows AWS resources, like DynamoDB, to be accessed via GraphQL APIs. This approach offers flexible data retrieval. Users can perform query and mutation operations with GraphQL and receive data in JSON format.

The KaTe AWS Adapter enables SAP PO users to access GraphQL APIs without leaving XML-centric design tools. This provides a seamless integration experience.

The adapter includes a generator that automatically creates XML schemas for importing GraphQL schemas into SAP PO’s Enterprise Services Repository (ESR). This simplifies setup and ensures compatibility.

At runtime, the adapter translates XML messages into GraphQL queries and converts GraphQL responses back into XML. This maintains the XML-based workflow of SAP PO.

The KaTe AWS Adapter supports various authentication methods for AppSync. It supports AWS API Key, IAM Sigv4, and third-party API keys (e.g., MongoDB Realm).

This flexibility allows businesses to securely access GraphQL APIs according to their existing security protocols. The integration provides secure, scalable data workflows with AWS resources.

With this update, SAP PO users can easily integrate modern GraphQL APIs, enhancing the capabilities of their SAP systems. This boosts the efficiency and scalability of data processing in cloud environments.
