Raleigh, N.C. – March 14, 2012 – Advantco International LLC, an SAP® software solution partner in the SAP PartnerEdge™ program, today announced the availability of its SAP-Certified Advantco REST Adapter. Advantco’s REST Adapter for SAP NetWeaver PI is fully integrated with the Adapter Framework, which means the REST interfaces can be configured, managed and monitored using the standard SAP PI tools. With SAP PI scalability and stability, the Advantco REST Adapter for SAP NetWeaver PI ensures the highest level of availability for hosted REST services.
Combining the Advantco REST Adapter with the SAP NetWeaver PI capabilities, such as message transformation, dynamic routing and reliable messaging, broadens the field of applications and devices that benefit from enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA).
Thorsten Düvelmeyer, SAP In-house Consultant, Gebr. Heinemann, agreed on the necessity for a REST adapter in a review of the Advantco solution:
At Heinemann, we needed several additional B2B adapters for our PI 7.1.1 system. It was very important for us to have one strategic adapter partner instead of many suppliers. So we did a market analysis and found Advantco with a working solution for AS2, SFTP and REST. All adapters were very easy to implement and have an intuitive monitoring with detailed information. The documentation was very helpful during the setup. Beyond that the support was prompt and of an excellent quality. For the REST adapter, we needed additional functionality (a polling mode and NTLM v2 proxy authentication), and these were added very quickly. In the future, we plan to establish a ‘Restful Order Manager’ based on the Advantco adapter.
