Strategical Decision - when to use PCK instead of XI - Adapter ?

Hello Everybody,
being a newby to the world of SAP Netweaver I found the ressources you created here very use- und helpful - thank you all.
We are in somekind of a design-phase regarding our necessary interfaces ...
right now a strategic question occures : when will it make sense to make use of PCK instead of using the possibilties PI has ?
Or else : Why should I use (and pay for) pck, while Netweaver PI can be used as some kind of middleware?
Whats the advantage / disadvantage?
I found and read a lot of blogs, threads, etc. describing and discussing the how PCK works (or not) but I still don't get the picture about the questions above.
Thanks in advance !
René

hi
The PCK (Partner Connectivity Kit) is a solution provided by SAP for companies who wants to communicate with another company that have SAP XI but don’t want to install their own SAP XI, basically it’s an installation of an small SAP XI system with most of the functionality disabled and it is used as an endpoint for message transfer between the organization with XI and the partner company.

  • Re : When to Use tables instead of Cursors in Stores Procedures

    Hello All,
    Hope all is well. I know this is very broad questions and requires more specifics. All, I am trying to understand from very high level is to what are some of the instances when one would prefer to have physical/temp tables instead of using cursors in SP. Generic Pointers would really be helpful.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sam

    You are comparing apples and oranges here.
    A cursor is a work area where oracle stores the procession information when it executes a multi-row query.
    Lets say you have a sql query like this
    select * from empWhen such a query is executed oracle allocates a work area where the processing information of the query is stored. This
    is called a cursor. You can explicitly define a cursor like this.
    cursor c_emp
    is
    select * from empIn this case you are giving a name to the work area allocated by oracle. Now you can use this name c_emp to access the
    result set sequentially.
    On the other hand a Table is an oracle Object. It is a logical representation of your physical data.
    Data in a table can be manipulated meaning, you can insert, update or delete it. Data in a table is persistent.
    So i don't think a comparison between this two is appropriate.
    Thanks,
    Karthick.

  • Please help! Image only shows when i use Applets instead of Frame/JFrame

    The following classes don't work because the Canvas shows just background colour. However, when I let my class "MyContainer" extend Applet instead(and running the Applet instead of the StartUp class that creates a JFrame) of Frame/JFrame i get my Image on the Canvas showing, WHY?
    code:
    public class StartUp {
    public static void main(String[] arg) {
    MyContainer my = new MyContainer();
         my.setSize(500, 400);
         my.setVisible(true);
    public class MyContainer extends JFrame {
    MyCanvas m;
    public void MyContainer() {
         m=new MyCanvas();
         this.setSize(320, 320);
    this.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 1, 0, 0));
    this.add(m);
    this.setVisible(true);
    public class MyCanvas extends Canvas {
    Image im;
    public MyCanvas() {
    im=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage("c:\\miniferrari.jpg");
    try {
    jbInit();
    catch(Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
    g.drawImage(im, 0, 0, this);
    private void jbInit() throws Exception {
    this.setBackground(Color.darkGray);

    as you are using a JFrame, you should refer to it's contentpane:
    this.getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 1, 0, 0));
    this.getContentPane().add(m);

  • When to use First instead of  First_Value functions

    When would you use the First_Values function instead of First? What's the difference between the two?

    Here are some examples of both in action. Use the analytic function FIRST_VALUE when you don't want to group your records. Use the aggregate function FIRST when you do.
    select

      hiredate ,

      first_value( ename ) over ( partition by deptno order by hiredate ) first_hired

  • Why does a different number come up when i use imessage instead of text? my friends keep responding to my msg with 'who is this?' since ios 5 update.!!?

    Why does a different number come up when i messaging to other i phones? My friends keep responding to my imessage with 'who is this' and apparently it comes from another number-not my usual number like texts...

    Thanks. The number shown against 'phone' is not my number. But it is the number my friend showed me that was coming up when she got my mgs.... Still confused!

  • Reconfigure wifi to use USB instead of PCIe adapter

    Is there a way in OS X 10.9.1 to reconfigure the OS to point the Wi-Fi connection, the one that appears in the top bar and connect automatically, at a USB wi-fi adapter instead of the built-in card?
    Right now I'm using a USB Wi-Fi adaptor, but this requires using the Realtek Wireless Network Utility to connect and manage wireless networks, and appears as a seperate connection in Network Preferences.

  • Why no sound to TV when I use my mdport to HDMI Adapter?

    I have a 15" MBP (early 2011) model so I know  it has capabilities. I've read customer reviews that tell me to go to System Pref>Sounds> and then choose the HDMI, but i dont have that option. The only device available is the "Internal Speakers" Can anyone help me figure this out? Thanks!

    You need to tell us which MacBook Pro you have.  MBP's prior to the late 2009 models couldn't transmit sound. Later models require a specific brand of connector, though most current MBP's work with any adapter.  See this website for more information.

  • When I use Preview to view a PDF in Hebrew, I cannot search in Hebrew nor copy or paste instead I get gibberish

    When I use Preview to view a PDF in Hebrew, I cannot search in Hebrew nor copy or paste instead I get gibberish.
    Is there a way to fix this?

    Do you have an example that someone could look at? I wouldn't be surprised if most PDFs you found were gibberish. PDF is a print format and is really only designed to be printed out and read by a human. Constructing a PDF with real Hebrew Unicode would be a rare find. Here is one example I found by passing the Hebrew word for "Hebrew" in Hebrew in Google. This is a valid PDF. I have no idea what it says.
