Microsoft BizTalk Adapter for SAP

Microsoft BizTalk Adapter for SAP was designed to ease integration between existing internal or external applications by using BizTalk Server as the hub between one or more SAP applications servers. With a simple set of configurations, the adapter provides a straightforward yet powerful connectivity solution for enterprise customers who want to integrate their existing applications with SAP. This connectivity solution requires no code to integrate one or more SAP systems with internal or external application systems.

BizTalk Adapter for SAP offers:

• Speed to implementation. BizTalk Adapter for SAP provides organizations with a quick and simple option for designing, developing, and deploying solutions that connect to SAP. Knowledge workers can configure the Adapter through a graphical user interface (GUI) to integrate multiple application systems with SAP. This reduces implementation time, as developers do not need to know how to write code. Developers can also create XML specifications, which enable application servers such as SAP to integrate with BizTalk Server by using point-and-click navigation (to navigate to the desired SAP Intermediate Document (IDoc) and then click a button). These XML specifications facilitate sending and receiving SAP IDocs between any application and the SAP server by using BizTalk Server as the hub.
• Reduced risk. The combination of BizTalk Adapter for SAP and BizTalk Server reduces the risk of project failures by removing the need to develop infrastructure components such as network protocol support and translation, data conversion, data transformation, and development of business process automation. BizTalk Adapter for SAP enables whoever has responsibility for delivering mission-critical applications within an organization to easily calculate the risk associated with building solutions that must interact with SAP.
• Rapid return on investment. You can realize rapid return on investment by using BizTalk Server to provide the infrastructure components necessary to support generic services for building SAP solutions. This eliminates the need to develop custom solutions for each SAP connectivity scenario in a company. The generic services accelerate the process of designing, developing, and deploying enterprise-class solutions for sending and receiving data to SAP as developers do not have to understand low-level SAP protocols and concepts. Developers and administrators can build and deploy solutions faster because they can focus on implementing connections instead of hand-coding the interface with a custom solution.
