Difference between ACE module and ACE appliance

Hi All,
Can someone help to understand the difference between ACE module and ACE appliance, as i am observing ACE module is providing more throughput when compared the ACE appliance, Is the only advantage we getting with contexts ....
thanks inadvance,
Narayana Mallidi

Hi Narayan,
Apart from providing throughput, ACE module has more to offer ,
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Application_Control_Engine_%28ACE%29_Troubleshooting_Guide_--_ACE_Resource_Limits
The above link will provide a comparision of ACE module and Ace appliance interms of scalability. Apart from that legacy modules wont support compression, but ACE 30 module can support compression.
The major advantage of ACE 30 module is with resepct to SSL throughput, SSL TPS, L4 & L7 CPS, & Concurent Connections per second, apart from the increased contexts

Can ACE module and 4710 appliance work redundant together

Hi.
I am setting up a testlab for ACE loadbalancing and need to test functionality on both the ACE module and the 4710 appliance.
Can one of each of these two be set up redundant together with full functionality? Or do I have to test redundancy for 2x ACE modules and 2x 4710 appliances seperate?
Thanks in advance for any help!

It won't work.
The code checks if the devices are the same during the HA negotiation.
If you do a 'show ft peer detail' you should see at the end :
SRG Compatibility : WARM_COMPATIBLE
License Compatibility : INCOMPATIBLE
These 2 entries indicate if the box are compatible to run HA between each other.
The version is checked and the license.
Both would be different between an ACE module and ACE appliance.

Difference between function module and a method?

Hi Experts
Can anybody pls tell me the technical and functional difference between function moduel and a method?
Thanks
Sudhansu

Hi,
Function modules are procedures that are defined in function groups (special ABAP programs with type F) and can be called from any ABAP program. Function groups act as containers for function modules that logically belong together. You create function groups and function modules in the ABAP Workbench using the Function Builder.
Function modules allow you to encapsulate and reuse global functions in the R/3 System. They are stored in a central library. The R/3 System contains a wide range of predefined function modules that you can call from any ABAP program. Function modules also play an important role in database updates and in remote communications between R/3 Systems or between an R/3 System and a non-SAP system.
You can declare methods in the declaration part of a class or in an interface. To declare instance methods, use the following statement:
METHODS <meth> IMPORTING.. [VALUE(]<ii>[)] TYPE type [OPTIONAL]..
               EXPORTING.. [VALUE(]<ei>[)] TYPE type [OPTIONAL]..
               CHANGING.. [VALUE(]<ci>[)] TYPE type [OPTIONAL]..
               RETURNING VALUE(<r>)
               EXCEPTIONS.. <ei>..
When you declare a method, you also define its parameter interface using the additions IMPORTING, EXPORTING, CHANGING, and RETURNING. The additions define the input, output, and input/output parameters, and the return code. They also define the attributes of the interface parameters, namely whether a parameter is to be passed by reference or value (VALUE), its type (TYPE), and whether it is optional (OPTIONAL, DEFAULT).
Unlike in function modules, the default way of passing a parameter in a method is by reference.
As in function modules, you can use exception parameters (EXCEPTIONS) to allow the user to react to error situations when the method is executed.
As in function modules, you can use the RAISE <exception> and MESSAGE RAISING statements to handle error situations.

Difference between function module and userexit and badi

Hello Gurus,
                As a functional consultant i want to know what is function module and user exit and badi.
what is the difference between function module , user exit and badi?

Ramachandra

Rama,
Function modules are ABAP routines that are administered in a central function library. They apply across applications and are available throughout the system. You must assign function modules to a function pool that is called a function group. A function group is nothing but a container for the function modules.
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
User exit - A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.
SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP.   XX represents the 2-digit exit number.
UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number .
Difference between BADI and USER-EXIT.
    i) BADI's can be used any number of times, where as USER-EXITS can be used only one time.
       Ex:- if your assigning a USER-EXIT to a project in (CMOD), then you can not assign the same to other project.
    ii) BADI's are oops based.
Hope this helps you.

Difference between Function Module and Routine

Hi,
I am zero at ABAP Skill.
Can any one explain me what is the difference between Routine in BW and Function Module .
Thanks

Hi,
well basically it is almost the same. Both have a defined interface. You can pass variables to them and they can return variables. They can also change parameters... The main difference is, that a routine (form routine) can be used within the program where it is defined only and a function module can be used in all programs, form routines.

Difference Between Function Module And BAPI

Hi Friends,
What is the technical difference between BAPI and Function Module (Normal, RFC and update)?
When do we use BAPI and FM?
If BAPI is also RFC enabled then why do we have RFC function module?
Kindly clarify with examples.
Regards,
Pradeep Singh Dhadwal

Hi Pradeep,
BAPI vs FM
Difference between FM and BAPI
BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
A BAPI is remotely enabled function module
ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access.
Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects.
You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository)
which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
FM
Normal FM used internally inside SAP.
Hope this helps,
Manish

Difference between function module and subroutines

hey all...
can u pls explai me the exact difference between subroutines and function modules...
also, when is a sub routine used and also when is a function module used..???
regards..
vishal

Hi Vishal,
Basically they do the same thing and purpose is almost same but tecnically the are way apart:
Function modules must belong to a pool called a function group.
They possess a fixed interface for data exchange. This makes it easier for you to pass input and output parameters to and from the function module.
For example, you can assign default values to the input parameters. The interface also supports exception handling. This allows you to catch errors and pass them back to the calling program for handling.
They use their own memory area. The calling program and the function module cannot exchange data using a shared memory area - they must use the function module interface. This avoids unpleasant side effects such as accidentally overwriting data.
You call a function module by its name (which must be unique) in a CALL FUNCTION statement.
and also
Unlike subroutines, you do not define function modules in the source code of your program. Instead, you use the Structure link Function Builder.
Check this link too

What is the Difference between WSN Module and Pioneer

I am confuse on the usage between LabVIEW WSN Module and LaBVIEW WSN Pioneer in some texts. Please, forum I need clarification on it.
Ilublessing
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello, llublessing,
It is the same thing. The pioneer name will be removed in the future completely as the product matures. This modules allows you to program using LabVIEW directly on WSN nodes! Hope this helps!

Difference between Function module and a subroutine

hi
In the case of subroutine i can access the global workarea values.
I want to know whether in the case of function module
whether
i can follow the same procedure to access the workarea values
or
i have to pass this workarea values as an import or tables parameter to the function module and then use it
(in first case whether that workarea to make global whether i have to place it in function pool please check this but which is better one)
Thx in advance for any replies.

Yes
You would have to pass the values as import parameters to access the global variables of the program otherwise you will not be able to get the values of the global variable from inside the program.
Another solution would be to export to SAP memory but the entire concept of modularization of using the FM would be lost.

Please can some-one tell me where to find the price differences between the ACA and ACE exams.

Please can someone tell me the price difference (in ZAR) between the ACE and ACA exams.

ACE Module vs ACE Appliance

Hello,
What is the difference between ACE Module and ACE Appliance? why the ACE Module is better? or ACE Appliance, what is the advantage between Module and Appliance.
anyone can explain me?
Best Regards

In the past Cisco has been shipping two line of Loadbalancing products
First line ( modules dedicated for 6500/7600 chassis ) includes CSM & CSM-S & SSLSM (for ssl offloading)
The other line comprises of appliance based CSS series products.
ACE module is a next generation module replacing CSM modules that fits into 6500/7600 chassis.
It gives you upto 16Gbps throughput (versus CSM's 4Gbps throughput).
ACE appliance is a next gen replacement of CSS line of appliance based products.
CSS appliances were used to come in different Hardware models with varied
performance capacities. ACE appliance is a single hardware with various licenses
used to scale the performance/features.Ace appliance supports upto 4Gbps of throughput.
Previously CSS & CSM code terminologies & command set was different. For example a real server
was termed as "service" in CSS & was called "real" in CSM . Similarly "probe" in CSM was "keepalive"
in CSS.
With ACE line of products you get the same terminologies & command sets for both
modules & Appliances.
ACE Appliance & ACE modules are functionality vise coming closer with every new release but
still there are some differences.
For example following ACE appliance features are not available in ACE module:
Appl optimization (flash forward, Delta Encoding)
Embedded Device manager
Http compression
Which one is better than the other really depends on your requirement
From Performance perspective Module give you much higher performance then Appliance.
SO if performance is your criteria the ACE module is better than ACE appliance.(Some performance metrics at the end of the post).
If you are looking for Application optimization & HTTP compression along with Loadbalancing
then it can only be achieved with ACE appliance.
If you are not using 6500/7600 series chassis in your environment then you can only use ACE appliance
(unless you are open to buy module+chassis due to performance requirement).
Some performance metrics
Ace Appliance supports 1 Million concurrent connections where as Ace Module supports 4 Million.
Ace Appliance supports 120K L4 conn/sec where as Ace Module supports 380K L4 conn/sec.
Ace Appliance supports 40K L7 conn/sec where as Ace Module supports 133K L7 conn/sec.
Ace Appliance supports upto 4Gbps throughput where as Ace Module supports 16Gbps throughput .

Diff between Function Module and subroutine

sir,
explain the difference between Function Module and Subroutine.

Hi Sandeep,
Subroutines:
Subroutines are procedures that you can define in any ABAP program and also call from any program. Subroutines are normally called internally, that is, they contain sections of code or algorithms that are used frequently locally. If you want a function to be reusable throughout the system, use a function module.
Function Modules:
Function modules are procedures that are defined in function groups (special ABAP programs with type F) and can be called from any ABAP program. Function groups act as containers for function modules that logically belong together. You create function groups and function modules in the ABAP Workbench using the Function Builder.
Function modules allow you to encapsulate and reuse global functions in the R/3 System. They are stored in a central library.
Unlike subroutines, you do not define function modules in the source code of your program. Instead, you use the Function Builder.

Difference between Ace Director and Ace Memeber

What is the Difference between Ace Director and Ace Member?
because recently I saw one Ace director becoming Ace Member... (John)

You have not read the link I provided, have you ?
Ace director are not more senior than Ace member, they have more things to commit to like "Ability to commit to participation in an honorary (noncompensated) capacity for 12 months"...
So, I cannot tell for John, but if one cannot commit within those things, you cannot be Ace director... and it is not "depromoted", probably have less time for this.
