Architectural differences between Ep5.0 and Ep6.0

Hi Expert,
Is there any document that specifies the differences in the EP5.0 and EP6.0 architecture.
It seems that the only difference is just the switch framework containing the extension set and Industry Solution extension...it looks very strange!
Have you any idea about other differencies?
Many thanks in advance
Fabio

Hi Fabio,
The difference between EP5 & EP6 is that there is no PDK beneath  EP. The "PDK" for EP6 is a business package (a role with some content) to import into EP6. From there, you can upload components (PAR files), delete them etc., and you have the doc's that you know from PDK 5.0.
There is also a different Eclipse plugin.
Portal components for EP5 and EP6 differ in many points, for example there is a xml deployment descriptor in EP6 where in EP5 you had the profile property files.
Also some APIs have changed.
But you can import EP5 par files into Eclipse with the EP6 plugin.
Regards,
Pooja.

  • Architectural difference between 11i and R12

    Hello Guys:
    I am planning do a training in Oracle Apps very soon. We are running 11.5.10 CU2 and for the most part it won't be upgraded to R12 in at least next 1 year. Now that the R12 is released Oracle has more of R12 trainings than 11i. Given this situation I am in a dilemma has to which version I should be doing the training. 11i or R12.
    I firmly believe that unless otherwise there is a huge change in Application Architecture I should go with R12. I went through some of the R12 release notes and to me it looks there is not much of a difference in Architecture between 11i and R12. Do you think my decision to do R12 is wise?
    Hussein , your thoughts on this?
    Regards,
    Bala

    I went through some of the R12 release notes and to me it looks there is not much of a difference in Architecture between 11i and R12. "Oracle Applications Concepts - R12" manual lists all the new changes/components in Oracle E-Business Suite R12 on the Application, Database, and Desktop tiers.

  • Teamviewer - All positions in Org Unit display depth between EP5 and EP6

    We are in the process of upgrading our HR Portal from Version 5 to Version 6 (SP14) and have encountered an issue with the Team viewer functionality.
    In our EP5 system when the user selects the dropdown option for 'All positions in org unit' it is picking up our Configuration limiting it to showing only 3 structure levels and when an attempt is made to display lower levels the expander changes but no more levels are shown (e.g. Expander icon changes but does not render the lower level).
    In our EP6 system when the user selects the dropdown option for 'All positions in org unit' it is ignoring the same Configuration and lets the user select down to the bottom of the organisation. This will obviously have serious performance implications and so must be corrected if we are to implement this upgrade.
    To test the situation we deployed the following par files from our EP5 system to our EP6 system and found that we achieved the required result of only allowing the configured levels to be shown:
    com.sap,pct.hcm.objectanddatprovider.par
    com.sap,pct.hcm.orgmanagementeventing.par
    com.sap,pct.hcm.teamviewer.par
    This points to an issue between these files from the EP5 version to the EP6 version.
    Has anyone else experienced an issue with how the EP6 teamviewer handles the 'All positions in Org Unit' selection, and if so can you let me know any solution you have to it?
    (Note: This selection used Eval Path MDTSBESX)
    Message was edited by: Steve Caffrey

    Hello Sandeep,
    Unfortunately the only standard functionality is to change the rankings of the positions within transaction ppome. Therefore you have the buttons 'Move up in rank' and 'Move down in rank' in the overview area of the ppome. As you know if the field PRIOX in the table hrp1001 is empty, the transaction sorts the positions by OBJID. So perhaps you could create a abap program to change this standard functionality to insert values into field PRIOX for the corresponding relationship in HRP1001 that you want to sort.
    Best Regards

  • KM feature difference between Netweaver and EP6 SP2.

    Folks,
    I need to come up with advantages of upgrading our EP6 SP2 ) environment to Netweaver stack. . I have heard a lot about it. I now need to document this.
    Now I want to make a solid case of this to my Management and get their buy in.
    Where can I find information where I can get a comparison primarily from a KM standpoint, and overall portal feature set.
    Based on this I have to come with a ROI model that will help us migrate to Netweaver stack.
    Any help would be appreciated. And I promise to return and reward the answers. thanx rj.

    Pretty much everything is explained in here:

  • What's the Difference Between OLAP and OLTP?

    HI,
    What's the difference between OLAP and OLTP ? and which one is Best?
    -Arun.M.D

    Hi,
       The big difference when designing for OLAP versus OLTP is rooted in the basics of how the tables are going to be used. I'll discuss OLTP versus OLAP in context to the design of dimensional data warehouses. However, keep in mind there are more architectural components that make up a mature, best practices data warehouse than just the dimensional data warehouse.
    Corporate Information Factory, 2nd Edition by W. H. Inmon, Claudia Imhoff, Ryan Sousa
    Building the Data Warehouse, 2nd Edition by W. H. Inmon
    With OLTP, the tables are designed to facilitate fast inserting, updating and deleting rows of information with each logical unit of work. The database design is highly normalized. Usually and at least to 3NF. Each logical unit of work in an online application will have a relatively small scope with regard to the number of tables that are referenced and/or updated. Also the online application itself handles the majority of the work for joining data to facilitate the screen functions. This means the user doesn't have to worry about traversing across large data relationship paths. A heavy dose of lookup/reference tables and much focus on referential integrity between foreign keys. The physical design of the database needs to take into considerations the need for inserting rows when deciding on physical space settings. A good book for getting a solid base understanding of modeling for OLTP is The Data Modeling Handbook: A Best-Practice Approach to Building Quality Data Models by Michael C. Reingruber, William W. Gregory.
    Example: Let's say we have a purchase oder management system. We need to be able to take orders for our customers, and we need to be able to sell many items on each order. We need to capture the store that sold the item, the customer that bought the item (and where we need to ship things and where to bill) and we need to make sure that we pull from the valid store_items to get the correct item number, description and price. Our OLTP data model will contain a CUSTOMER_MASTER, A CUSTOMER_ADDRESS_MASTER, A STORE_MASTER, AN ITEM_MASTER, AN ITEM_PRICE_MASTER, A PURCHASE_ORDER_MASTER AND A PURCHASE_ORDER_LINE_ITEM table. Then we might have a series of M:M relationships for example. An ITEM might have a different price for specific time periods for specific stores.
    With OLAP, the tables are designed to facilitate easy access to information. Today's OLAP tools make the job of developing a query very easy. However, you still want to minimize the extensiveness of the relational model in an OLAP application. Users don't have the wills and means to learn how to work through a complex maze of table relationships. So you'll design your tables with a high degree of denormalization. The most prevalent design scheme for OLAP is the Star-Schema, popularized by Ralph Kimball. The star schema has a FACT table that contains the elements of data that are used arithmatically (counting, summing, averaging, etc.) The FACT Table is surrounded by lookup tables called Dimensions. Each Dimension table provides a reference to those things that you want to analyze by. A good book to understand how to design OLAP solutions is The Data Warehouse Toolkit: Practical Techniques for Building Dimensional Data Warehouses by Ralph Kimball.
    Example: let's say we want to see some key measures about purchases. We want to know how many items and the sales amount that are purchased by what kind of customer across which stores. The FACT table will contain a column for Qty-purchased and Purchase Amount. The DIMENSION tables will include the ITEM_DESC (contains the item_id & Description), the CUSTOMER_TYPE, the STORE (Store_id & store name), and TIME (contains calendar information such as the date, the month_end_date, quarter_end_date, day_of_week, etc).

  • Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?

    Hi,
    Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?
    I guess R2 is used only for mainframe systems some time back. But i dont know why we prefered R3 over R2.
    Please clarify this!
    Thanks,
    Venkatesh.R.

    SAP R/3 is
    Client server
    3 tier
    Presentation
    Application
    Database
    Relatively hardware and database independent
    ABAP/4 applications runs on application servers.
    Dispatcher, shared memory, gateway, work processes are major components of an application server.
    SAP R/3 offers
    Comprehensive suite of integrated applications meeting the needs of most business
    Best practice process design
    Ability to configure to
    Industry sector
    Unique business requirements
    In a R/2  System - it is a 2 Tier System based on Mainframe Systems with Intelligent terminals
    R/3 is based 3 tier Client Server architechture and supports the R/2 system as well.
    R/3 Middleware -
    Client server
    Uses underlying relational databases
    Oracle
    SQL server
    Ingress
    Sybase
    Its graphical user interface
    Sap GUI
    hence R/3 is preffered over R/2 systems because they support Client Server Architecture which is easily configurable,scalable and can integrate with ERP systems and integrate with SOA or Web based Apps.

  • Difference between CRM and R/3

    can anyone clarify on these...
    What is difference between CRM and R/3
    Also about CRM sales order vs R/3 Sales order why we go crm in this case .

    First, it is expedient to state that both SAP Business One and SAP R/3 are built on the concept of client/server architecture. So how do they differ? Let's first understand the relationship in a client server setup. A client server is a computer system design standard in which the client machines requests and gets back information from a distribution machine called the server.
    SAP Business One as said earlier is based on client/server architecture, howbeit a "2 tier": strictly, clients and server. This technology is often referred to as a fat client. This is because all processing and business logic are carried out on the client.
    SAP R/3 is based on a three tier client/server technology. Typically, it is made up of three functionally distinct layers namely: the user interface, business logic and database.
    The user interface, which is otherwise known as the presentation server displays the interface for users' communication with the SAP system. It is often referred to as the SAP GUI. As a matter of fact, it is a program called sapgui.exe. The application server is where the business logic and data manipulation takes place. Data processing, SAP administration tasks and client request/feedback management are handled within the business layer. The database layer is synonymous to the database server and it typically acts as a data repository for tables and other database objects and structures.
    Ideally, an R/3 system is composed of one database server, one or more application servers and one or more presentation servers. SAP Business One on the other hand is composed of a database server and one or more presentation servers.

  • Difference between ESOA and SOA Middle ware

    Hi All
    Can anybody explain me the difference between ESOA and SOA Middle Ware?
    Thanks
    SIM

    Hi SIM,
    SOA and ESOA are not middlewares.
    They are architectures.
    SOA is Service Oriented Architecture
    ESOA is same as SOA with some business semantics which is initiated by SAP to reduce the complexity of business process and problems.
    Middleware is any tool which is used to integrate different technologies and platform like XI .
    XI is a middleware tool which supports SOA and ESOA. I.e by using SOAP adapter you can expose web services which can have business meaning also.
    Hope this helps.
