Understand on premise integration and cloud to cloud integration, including two-way IDoc with local web services, B2B exchanges, and AS2/EDI patterns using SAP PO and CPI.
Explore the four technology pillars of SAP BTP—database and data management, analytics, application development and integration, and intelligent technologies. Leverage SAP Hana Cloud, Data Warehouse Cloud, and AI services.
Explain microservices as small, independent services that each handle a single task, enabling independent development, scalability, fault isolation, and technology-agnostic tool selection across cloud providers.
Explore Cloud Foundry, an open source multi-cloud platform as a service governed by the Cloud Foundry Foundation, embraced by SAP to provide runtimes, multi-cloud deployment, frameworks, and database services.
Describe how the cloud integration runtime executes interfaces inside tenants, now containerized instead of VMs, using SAP Integration Suite and tools across subaccounts and global accounts.
Explore how SAP Integration Suite uses Apache Camel as its runtime framework, converting graphical integration flows into Camel routes executed in tenant runtimes.
Understand SAP integration architecture within the SAP BTP technology platform, detailing sender and receiver flows, tenants, cloud integration, runtime, workers, the load balancer, and roles like integration developer and administrator.
Create an SAP BTP trial account, access SAP Integration Suite, assign the integration provisioner role, and build an integration flow using the integration scenario.
Explore the components of the SAP integration flow, including sender and receiver, adapters, mapping and transformation, routing, data persistence, exception handling, security, and monitoring.
Explore the event step in SAP integration suite, including end message, terminate message, escalation, and timer start events; learn error handling, flow control, signaling success, and scheduling integration flows.
Explore the mapping step in sap cpi, transforming data across formats with message, operational, xslt, and value mappings using graphical tools and groovy or javascript for xml, json, and csv.
Explore the transformation step in SAP Integration Suite, using content modifier to adjust headers, properties, and body, converters, EDI extractors, filters, message digest, and scripts to process and format messages.
Describe how the call step in SAP integration suite enables external and local calls to external services or sub-processes, using HTTP, OData, or SOAP, with mapping, deployment, and testing.
Describe the security step in SAP CPI, including decryptor, encryptor, signer, and verifier, to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity in integration flows.
Learn how the persistence step enables reliable messaging in sap cpi by using data store operations, persist message, and write variables for storage, logging, and debugging.
Learn SAP integration adapters and connectivity options across source, external call, and target levels. Identify HTTP, SOAP, OData, file-based, database, and cloud adapters for secure, effective integrations.
Navigate the design tab in the SAP Integration Suite to create, configure, and deploy integration flows with drag-and-drop interface, using pre-built content for data transformation and mapping, routing, and security.
Explore the monitor option in SAP Integration Suite to track integration flows, adapters, and API usage with real-time dashboards, troubleshoot errors, and optimize performance.
This course provides a complete introduction to SAP Integration Suite, helping you understand how SAP enables smooth and secure integration across cloud and on-premise systems. It is designed for learners who want a conceptual understanding of SAP’s cloud integration platform without getting into hands-on configuration.
You will begin with the fundamentals of SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI) — what it is, why it’s used, and how it fits within the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). The course also explains SAP BTP’s key pillars, intelligent enterprise framework, and how integration supports digital transformation.
Throughout the course, you will:
Understand the architecture and purpose of SAP Integration Suite
Learn about SAP BTP, CPI, Cloud Foundry, and SAP Neo environments
Explore cloud computing, virtualization, containerization, and microservices
Discover the components of Integration Flows (iFlows) and pipeline steps
Get familiar with integration tools — Discover, Design, and Monitor
Understand connectivity options and the SAP Integration Content Catalog
Here’s an overview of the key pipeline steps you’ll learn about in this course:
Participants – Define the sender and receiver systems that are part of the integration.
Process – Represents the main flow where all steps of the integration logic are executed.
Event – Used to trigger or handle specific conditions or actions during the message flow.
Mappings – Transform data from one format to another (e.g., XML to JSON, IDoc to SOAP).
Transformations – Apply operations like filtering, enrichment, or content modification.
Call Steps – Invoke external services or sub-processes during the integration.
Routing Steps – Decide the message path based on conditions (e.g., if-else or content-based routing).
Security – Apply encryption, authentication, or digital signatures to ensure data protection.
Validator – Check message structure and data consistency before sending.
Persistence – Store messages temporarily for logging, monitoring, or retry mechanisms.
By the end, you’ll have a clear overview of SAP Integration Suite, its core services, and how different components work together to integrate SAP and non-SAP applications seamlessly. This course builds a strong foundation for anyone looking to start a career in SAP integration or enhance their cloud platform knowledge.
