Integration
Gateway
enables
you to expose and manage OData services, which can be consumed by
SAP Mobile Platform applications. The OData services are based on database
and web services data from different data sources (both SAP and
non-SAP).
Integration
Gateway includes:
- Toolkit for Integration
Gateway,
which provides an environment to connect to different data sources and to create
and deploy artifacts on SAP Mobile Platform Server.
- Gateway
Management Cockpit, which is the central UI for managing OData services that
have been deployed on
SAP Mobile Platform Server.
If you are using
Integration
Gateway,
you need to perform the following administrator tasks:
- Map the logical roles required by Toolkit for Integration Gateway users. Default
Integration
Gateway
roles are installed with SAP Mobile Platform Server.
- Manage the OData services
deployed on
SAP Mobile Platform Server.
Use the Gateway Management Cockpit to register and create destinations for
services. For details, see Gateway
Management Cockpit.
- Configure
application
connections to Integration
Gateway back ends using SAP Mobile Platform Server
Management Cockpit. The endpoint URL for the connection should be the same as
the service document URL of the registered service in Gateway Management
Cockpit.
