With Figaf, you get much better control over your transport.
- Once you are transporting the integration, you can see what will be the change with the new version
- You can handle which configurations should be applied after the transport
- All documentation is handled in the tool, so no more excel documents with configuration
- You get more control over the transport approvals
- Making developers focus on development, not management
For each system, you can define how it should be able to approve the transport.
By default, it is not allowed for transport create to approve his own transports to ensure compliance with SOX.
Yes, there are several ways you can include the tool into your development practices. We do support an API to handle approval or transport from your tickets.
Our clients use manual approaches in most cases and just use the tool as a simple link to the tickets.
An API will allow you to trigger the transport in Figaf and manage the transport flow. One of the more significant problems with DevOps on a Cloud Integration is that data structure can be confusing.
The normal flows of development in branches are not supported. The primary reason is this will become challenging to handle in a CPI context where you have some code, and most editing should be performed in the WebUI. It also brings some limits to what is possible to use of flows.
Our normal recommendation is to use Git as a file share where you have access to all your CPI IFlows, code, test cases, and versioning.
The Figaf Suite is a Java application that can run on SAP BTP Cloud Foundry. With SAPs free tier and the trials, it is easy to get to run. The tool can also run on your own server. It just requires Java and a database. For a PoC, you can run it on your laptop since it is easy to install.
You can get started in as little as 60 minutes to set up a system, and connect it to your SAP PI or CPI system. Then you can try the testing or the transport mechanism. We have a video of how to start a trial in just 30 minutes here.
If you run into problems during your trial, write to [email protected], then we will try to help you.
How do I convince my manager to buy the tool?
That is one of the more challenging parts of the process. Many factors make our DevOps tool compelling to get started with:
- It makes it cheaper to build integration
- Improves documentation and governance
- It is easy to implement and learn
We have many slides and business cases where you can get some inspiration on how to handle the scenarios.
The price starts at 590 EUR/month for managing 40 Integration objects. For 100 objects, the price is 1.000 EUR/month. Subsequent packages of 100 objects are 500 EUR/month
Hosting in BTP is about 300 EUR/month.

Why did I create Figaf?
SAP Integration is a hot topic in the SAP world because you need good integrations to run your enterprise. On top of this, the integration need is growing, and it has become more complex.
Even if the integration development has become easier, then there has not been a significant improvement in the governance process. SAP Customers would typically follow some framework like SOX or ITIL to ensure they have the proper documentation and separation of duties.
I have worked with a lot of SAP customers, and I have been frustrated with the process of documentation. Most did not capture enough data, while others captured useless information that the developers should ensure was updated. Also, there was no proper way of testing the integration, so it never performed well.
Most SAP Integration Teams have two challenges:
- Too many integrations to the current team of developers
- Needing to ensure their deployment procedures are followed
That is why we build Figaf DevOps Suite. It focuses on the integration can be delivered better to make life easier for integration developers.
In the last six years, I’m happy to report that we have built a tool that has enabled developers in more than 20 companies to focus more on the integrations instead of on tasks that should be automated.
