RESTful Adapter for SAP PO

RESTful Adapter

The increased use of the cloud, Software as a Service (SaaS), and mobile devices and their integration with Web APIs and REST services is currently a major challenge.

REST services are based on formats such as JSON, XML and Atom Pub and are provided using hyperlinks and HTTP methods.

Our RESTful Adapter gives you an advantage in publishing these REST Services & APIs with SAP Process Integration/Orchestration to integrate SAP as well as non-SAP systems or BPMN processes.

The RESTful Adapter also supports the OpenaPI 3.0 and Swagger 2.0 API description formats for sender and receiver channels.

The advantages of the RESTful adapter
  • Integration

    Integration of any REST service from cloud and SaaS providers.

  • Web & Mobile Connection

    Deploy existing SOA services and integration scenarios as a REST service for public or internal use through lightweight web applications and mobile devices.

  • Non complicated programming

    Avoid costly custom programming by simplifying the integration of hyperlinks and web forms into your BPMN processes.

Here’s how convenient and secure our REST Adapter is.

Build the bridge between the new world of Web APIs and your existing processes. To do this, use the familiar design and configuration environment of SAP Process Integration and avoid cumbersome workarounds. This results in a fast standardized implementation, increased transparency and a lower TCO.

Kafka Adapter for SAP PO

Kafka Adapter for SAP PO

Apache Kafka is a popular open source project for processing event-driven data streams based on a transaction log.

Kafka clusters are often used in Big Data projects that value the combination of fault tolerance, high scalability and durability, and low latency when processing real-time data streams.

The Kafka Adapter for PO allows you to integrate your SAP landscape with Apache Kafka.

Our current version of the adapter supports:

  • Publishing PO messages as Kafka records.
  • Subscribing Kafka records as PO messages from 1..n topics.
  • Reading of beginning, end or arbitrary positions in Kafka streams.
  • Payload transformation between XML and JSON, AVRO, Protocol buffers and vice versa
  • Support of freestyle Avro schemas as well as Avro schema registries (e.g.: on confluent.io or self-hosted)
  • Common security options like PLAIN, PLAIN_SASL, SASL_SSL, SASL-Plain/SASL-SCRAM as well as client certificate authentication.
  • Dynamic Kafka record header read and write
  • Dynamic topic/partition or key information read and write
  • Deduplication of already processed Kafka data records via XI deduplication
  • Message batching, merging many Kafka records into one SAP PO message

The adapter works completely with SAP PO on-board tools for configuration or monitoring and does not require external tools for certificate management or AVRO schemas.

Azure Adapter for SAP PO

Azure Adapter for SAP PO

Azure cloud has recently become the new option for many companies for “pay as you go” implementation of new IT services with low operational costs.

IT solutions can be created “on demand” much faster and without large infrastructure investments. Serverless computing opens the doors for new innovations and real-time interaction with customers.

The challenge for many IT departments is now to quickly, securely and easily integrate existing master and transactional data (such as in SAP ERP) into house with the Azure Cloud.

Our adapter enables such connections for existing SAP landscapes with the most commonly used storage and messaging services on the Azure platform with SAP PO.

With our new Azure Adapter you can:

  • Send and receive messages from azure service bus queues and topics.
  • Send and receive messages from a storage queue
  • Store files and receive / delete files from a file storage queue
  • Store blobs and receive / delete blobs from Azure blob storage

Furthermore, our adapter has additional features that are common in the hybrid integration world, such as support for JSON / XML transformation and all necessary security mechanisms. These are easily configurable.

Our adapter runs on any SAP PI system from 7.1 to SAP PO 7.5.

Benefits of the KaTe Azure Adapter for SAP PO

  • Send and receive messages

    Send and receive messages from Azure service bus queues and topics and Azure storage queues.

GraphQL Adapter for SAP PO

GraphQL Adapter for SAP PO

GraphQL is a query language for selecting structured data, which is increasingly used for APIs.

With GraphQL, a client can select the fields and entities he needs for his use case based on a defined schema. This is one of the main differences to “tranditional” APIs, where the maximum set of fields must always be defined regardless of the client’s usage.

The GraphQL Adapter for SAP PO allows you to call popular SaaS or self-hosted GraphQL services from SAP PO without much development effort.

The adapter uses a generator to conveniently create the counterpart as PO internal WSDL from a GraphQL schema. The PO developer can therefore safely and easily consume GraphQL services using the usual development methodology.

Our current version of the adapter supports:

  • Calling GraphQL services of any type as a receiver channel.
  • Common authentication methods such as API key, AWS IAM and Basic Authentication
  • Generation of XML schemas for GraphQL schemas

All of our adapters are subscription licensed, which simplifies use at the project level or in limited use cases.
