SAP NetWeaver - NetWeaver Developer (Studio) Infrastructure (NWDI)
SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio builds on the open-source Eclipse framework. As a starting point for all Java development tools and the integration basis for all infrastructure components, SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio supports efficient development of Web Dynpro, Web services, and Java/J2EE business applications as well as Java projects on a large-scale basis for both SAP technologies and standard technologies.
SAP NetWeaver – Exchange Infrastructure (XI)
SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI) offers open integration technologies for process-oriented collaboration between SAP and non-SAP components of multiple enterprises. The knowledge needed for access to functions, system integration, and process support is stored in a common knowledge database. SAP NetWeaver XI builds upon common technologies, such as Web services, XML messaging, and Java and J2EE standards. SAP NetWeaver XI also provides predefined SAP integration knowledge and gives users collaboration content and implementation knowledge that helps them set up a partner network. The separation of integration knowledge from the underlying application code creates a reliable and scalable IT infrastructure.
