Missing SAP components

[matteo.redaelli]

HI

ServiceMix/Fuse ESB is a great sw, I would like to test and sponsor it in my company (Pirelli) but it misses a BC component for Sap Systems (many of big SAP customers still use quite old releases that don't support WS) using iDOC and RFC. Some other opensource esb (sun openesb, mule) provide a Sap JBI component. Will  ServiceMix/Fuse provide a Sap Jbi component?

Thanks

Matteo

This is the big selling point of JBI - as long as components are JBI compliant, they should run in any JBI compliant container. So the JBI compliant components from OpenESB should be able to be deployed into the FUSE ESB/ServiceMix. Please note that there are some SAP-specific dependencies for the OpenESB SAP BC and I'm not sure where to get those exactly.

If you are a SAP customer, you can download the Sap JCO libraries  from SAP support site. See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/6f/1bd5c6a85b11d6b28500508b5d5211/content.htm

Matteo,

1. Did you succeed with this approach?

2. Is it possible to integrate with SAP without XI/NetWeaver?

no.

but I think with servicemix-bean you can call sap using jco ...

otherwise the next release of spagic.org will support sap natively.

spagic can call Talend jobs and now Talend can connect to sap via rfc, bapi,... (http://www.talend.com/document-download.php?doc=saptechwp&src=EmailingLS8_nov08)
