SAP PI/PO: Seamless Integration Between SAP and Non-SAP Applications

SAP PI/PO and CPI

With our integration solutions based on SAP PI/PO and the SAP Integration Suite, we ensure seamless connectivity between SAP and non-SAP systems. SAP's middleware technology, developed over decades within SAP PI/PO, allows us to implement both technical interfaces and message flows efficiently, while also modeling modern business processes and workflows to current standards. Our experience demonstrates that the success of integration largely depends on a well-thought-out strategy and the underlying concept. This requires a thorough analysis of the current system landscape, with close communication with various stakeholders being essential.

Comprehensive Consulting from Strategy to Implementation

As integration architects, we provide end-to-end support in developing and implementing your integration strategy. Our focus is on the conception and execution of application integration, backed by our deep expertise and extensive experience. We handle the design and evolution of data models, create precise mappings, and guide you through all phases of integration testing.

Quo Vadis SAP Integration?

For integration architects, it’s crucial to closely monitor SAP’s latest developments and strategic adjustments. SAP has decided to align the maintenance strategy of SAP NetWeaver 7.5 with that of SAP Business Suite 7. This ensures a smooth transition to SAP S/4HANA. Specifically, SAP NetWeaver 7.5 will be supported under mainstream maintenance until the end of 2027, with extended maintenance available until the end of 2030 under the same terms and conditions as for SAP Business Suite 7.

SAP CPI IPaaS with SAP Cloud Platform Integration

The focus of SAP's integration landscape is increasingly shifting towards cloud integration. SAP Cloud Integration, also known as SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI), serves as a powerful Integration Platform-as-a-Service (IPaaS). It supports seamless connections between cloud and on-premises applications, both within the SAP ecosystem and with non-SAP applications. This platform enables real-time message processing, which is particularly advantageous in complex scenarios involving various companies, organizations, or departments within a larger structure. As an integration architect, staying up to date with these developments is essential to creating an effective and future-proof integration strategy.
