"SAP is pleased to expand our relationship with SEEBURGER to ultimately extend the functionality of the SAP Exchange Infrastructure. Our customers will benefit by more easily building integrated processes with their business partners in an efficient, reliable and secure manner, whether the integration is based on existing EDI technology or emerging Internet standards."

Klaus Kreplin, Member of the Extended Management Board, SAP AG

The foundation of SAP and integration is changing, but the knowledge needed to implement these solutions has not changed. Integration knowledge goes beyond technology and requires years of industry and architecture expertise. This is one of the many reasons that SAP partnered with SEEBURGER to provide solutions and implementation expertise for SAP Netweaver Exchange Infrastructure (XI) and Process Integration (PI).

SAP NetWeaver Adapters

SEEBURGER extends SAP Exchange Infrastructure and Process Integration, a major component of SAP NetWeaver, with enhanced adapter functionality to integrate and automate business processes with customers, partners and suppliers. SEEBURGER adapter solutions are already successfully deployed by leading companies like Spar, SupplyOn, Norske Skog, and Goodyear.

The SEEBURGER adapters are integrated seamlessly in the SAP NetWeaver technology stack via SAP's "JCA Framework" (Java Connectivity Architecture) and convert all relevant business documents from industry standards into the XML/SOAP-based format used by SAP NetWeaver. Since SEEBURGER is embedded in the Adapter Framework, all configuration, workflow, mapping, and communications are configured by the XI / PI tools sets. This means an organization doesn't have to have multiple skill sets in house for XI / PI and EDI. You can execute all EDI processes seamlessly within SAP XI / PI. The adapters also support the required communication protocols, which differ by region and industry. The use of standard adapters permits a considerable reduction in implementation time and costs.
