Enterprise Architecture and TOGAF 9

-
An Enterprise is any collection of organizations having same goal and purpose. These organizations are linked together and being owned and maintained by common owners across the enterprise. It encompasses its information and technology services, processes, and infrastructure - and a specific domain within that enterprise. The architecture may have multiple systems or multiple functional or business groups sharing the common goal. In an extended scenario, an Enterprise comprises of the partners, suppliers, and customers, as well as internal business units. Main purpose of Enterprise Architecture is to ensure an integrated, optimized, non redundant and efficient environment which responds to change and supports the business strategy. It is a strategic context for the evolution of the IT system in response to the constantly changing needs of the business environment. It balances the corporate IT Strategy and Business Innovation and makes sure that IT Strategies are met and permits closest possible synergy across extended enterprise. A good enterprise architecture ensures the following outcomes:

- Better ROI for existing investment and reducing risk for future investment
- Non Redundant Business Systems
- Effective, Efficient and Cost Effective IT Systems
- Brings legacy of processes into an integrated environment

As you are aware, SAP is a self-contained and modular system. So, communicating with SAP is a complex process. You have to have basic understanding of SAP Modules and Data Query/Retrieval process. But, communicating to SAP through RFC function calls has made it even easier. You can communicate with SAP RFCs in three different ways: 1.     Access SAP RFCs using WCF-SAP Adapter and SAP system credentials 2.     Access SAF RFCs through exposed RFCs as ABAP web services 3.     Access SAF RFCs through SAP Process Orchestrator, which is basically the SAP integration middleware Today, I will concentrate on No. 2, which is to communicate with SAP through RFC Web Services via ABAP web services. To do that, you need to expose SAP RFCs as consumable web services. Please follow THIS to expose RFCs as ...
