Charlotte, NC — March 29, 2021 — Advantco International today announced that its Kafka Adapter is now available on SAP® Store, which recently merged with SAP App Center as the single digital marketplace for SAP and partner offerings. By integrating with SAP Process Orchestration and SAP NetWeaver® using SAP Integration Suite, the Kafka Adapter from Advantco enables businesses across all industries to update their data systems with event streaming architecture; for collecting, processing, storing and analyzing data.

The SAP® Integration and Certification Center (SAP ICC) has certified that Advantco Kafka Adapter 1.0.4 integrates with SAP NetWeaver and cloud solutions from SAP using standard integration technologies, or that run as an add-on to a cloud solution from SAP. Technology or infrastructure products that have SAP-certified integration with SAP NetWeaver have proven to interoperate with the technology platform.

“We are pleased to announce that our plug-and-play Kafka Adapter is available on SAP Store and is SAP-certified as integrated with SAP NetWeaver and cloud solutions from SAP,” said Nick Persavich, President, Advantco. “The adapter will be highly beneficial to our current and future customers, allowing them to easily publish and subscribe to Kafka topics using SAP Process Orchestration, SAP Integration Suite or SAP HANA® smart data integration. It allows businesses to gain insights, monitor data and make critical business decisions.”

The benefits of the Advantco Kafka Adapter include:

• A free trial and a no-cost proof of concept
• A plug-and-play adapter that eliminates 80% of integration workload. No coding or additional tools needed.
• Coverage for moving from SAP Process Orchestration to SAP Integration Suite, as one of the only companies globally that builds identical adapters in both SAP Process Orchestration and SAP Integration Suite.
• A maintenance-free, up-to-date adapter, with continuous monitoring for upgrades, patches and best practices from Kafka and SAP.
