The hidden challenge of SAP PI/PO migration

Every organization asks the same questions before starting a migration.

What do we actually have?
Which interfaces are still used, and which ones can be retired?
What will the migration cost?
Where do we begin?

The answers rarely exist in one place. Instead, organizations spend weeks documenting interfaces, analyzing dependencies and estimating migration effort before the first integration is even migrated. Without complete visibility, planning is based on assumptions rather than facts.

Instead of manually analyzing hundreds or thousands of integrations, Figaf automatically discovers your SAP integration landscape, identifies migration candidates and provides the information you need to plan, prioritize and execute the migration. The result is a migration project based on facts rather than assumptions, with less risk before the first interface is migrated.

Building a predictable migration project

Without complete visibility	With Figaf
Nobody has a complete overview of the integration landscape.	Automatic discovery creates a complete inventory of interfaces, dependencies and documentation.
Migration effort is difficult to estimate.	Complexity analysis provides a realistic basis for planning and prioritization.
Unused integrations are migrated unnecessarily.	Usage analysis identifies candidates for retirement before the migration begins.
Migration relies on manual analysis and repetitive work.	Automation accelerates the migration while experts focus on the integrations that require their expertise.
Validation is time-consuming and inconsistent.	Automated validation helps ensure migrated integrations behave as expected.

What is the Migration Edition?

The Migration Edition is the full Figaf DevOps Tool. It differs only in licensing and support. Together with SAP, we have created a free version of Figaf for your migration project: it includes 10 free migrations, so you can see the result on your own interfaces, and a 2-month trial of Figaf DevOps Suite, so you can see how Figaf helps you run SAP Integration Suite after the move.

One tool for your whole migration
Track your migration effort
Assess your current landscape
Test with limited business knowledge
Govern your test cases and results
Keep the testing in your team

How Figaf migrates your SAP PI landscape

The migration to SAP Cloud Integration is well worth it, but it takes time and resources. In 2021, SAP started the Hack2Build competition to find a way to automate the time-consuming migration. Figaf took on the challenge, built a tool that converts PI ICOs to iFlows on top of its SAP automation framework, and won. The tool is now part of the Figaf DevOps Suite, and in customer projects it saves at least 2/3 of the time a migration needs, while the transport and testing capabilities help you run the project and raise the quality.

What it supports

SAP PI 7.1 and later
ICOs and Receiver Determinations
Asynchronous and synchronous integrations
Channel conversion using templates
Test cases recorded on SAP PI and run on Cloud Integration

What you get

Convert PI ICOs to iFlows in a few clicks
Convert existing message mappings and function libraries
Automated testing of the migrated interfaces
No surprises: know the impact of a change before you release it
Transport to production

Time and cost of a typical migration

As a rule of thumb, 70% of the interfaces can be migrated as they are, 15% should be redesigned, and 15% are outdated or can be replaced with standard content. Figaf saves about 2/3 of the time for converting ICOs and Receiver Determinations, and the included testing validates the result, so you get better migrations done faster.

Figaf Migration Tool in practice

Open a topic to see how it works and what it looks like in a real landscape.

Assessment and gap reportFind out what will not convert, before you commit to a date.

Analyse your SAP PI/PO landscape up front and get a per-interface report of what converts cleanly, what needs work, and what has to be rebuilt.

In practice: Turning "we have about 400 interfaces" into a plan with an effort estimate attached to each one. Read more →

In practice: Foodstuffs South Island had spent days building their own assessment. Figaf’s report gave them more detail and saved days of the project.

ICOs, mappings and function librariesConvert what you already have, rather than rebuilding it.

Teams using SAP PI have invested a lot of effort in their message mappings over the last decade, and many of them use function libraries. Figaf automates the migration of your mappings and keeps their value, including the function libraries they depend on.

In practice: Medela moved to Integration Suite in roughly two months, migrating its existing B2B mappings to the TPM structure in a common way with one mapping per day, with no defects reported. Read more →

Channel conversionConvert PI channels to Cloud Integration channels with templates.

Converting SAP PI channels to Cloud Integration channels is easy: use the pre-delivered templates, and adjust them to fit your flows. Once a channel works, turning it into your own template takes minutes.

Migration of test casesRecord messages on SAP PI, and test the migrated iFlow with them.

Once the migration is done, you want to know that everything that matters was migrated correctly. Record messages from your SAP PI system as a test case, convert it to a Cloud Integration test case in a few clicks, and test that everything works as expected.

In practice: Foodstuffs South Island retrieved test cases from their SAP PI/PO production environment to test their migrated iFlows, so the test data was like for like.

Regression testingProve the migrated flow behaves like the old one.

Run the same message through SAP PI/PO and through Integration Suite, then compare the output field by field.

In practice: Signing off an interface because the output is identical, not because it did not throw an error. Read more →

Testing before connectivityValidate migrated flows before the target landscape is connected.

Test the migrated interface against mocked endpoints while connectivity to the target systems is still being set up.

DocumentationArrive on Integration Suite with documentation you did not have before.

The migration produces a current record of every interface it moves.

In practice: Teams that migrate with Figaf often end up better documented after the move than they were before it. Read more →

How is it different?

The Migration Edition is a good add-on to your SAP PI/PO migration project. It automates your migration, testing and documentation, and it can also work together with SAP’s own migration tool: Figaf automates the regression testing, so you save time on the migration.

SAP’s tool supports SAP PI/PO 7.31, 7.4 and 7.5. If you run an older release, the Migration Edition can create the assessment and the tests, and for an additional fee automate the migration too.

Test cases recorded from SAP PI/PO, run on your migrated iFlows for 30 days at a time

Frequently asked questions

How do you deploy the Migration Edition?

We recommend deploying it on SAP BTP Cloud Foundry, where you can use SAP’s user management to simplify onboarding and sharing in your team, and run the app as a Docker image; see the deployment guide. To connect to your SAP PI/PO system you need a Cloud Connector that gives Figaf access to it.

You can also run Figaf as a standalone application on your laptop, though you cannot share your test results with your team that way. It is a good way to evaluate the tool. Or run it on any server, on-premise or at a hyperscaler, with Java 21 and PostgreSQL or MSSQL.

Is it difficult to learn the Migration Edition?

We have focused on making it easy to use, so everybody can get started fast. Our free online training takes you from installation to configuration and daily use.

What is not included in the Migration Edition?

Since it is a free edition, you do not get everything in our paid edition. Support is limited to our forum: we try to help with your challenges, but paying customers come first. Testing is limited to test cases created from your SAP PI/PO system, run on your migrated iFlows for 30 days; you can always create new test cases and use them for another 30 days. The full tool is a trial for the first 2 months, with limits on the number of objects.

Why upgrade to the paid version (Professional or Enterprise Edition)?

A migration takes a lot of hours, and a tool that automates even 10-20% of the work pays for itself. With the full version you improve how you deliver on SAP Integration Suite after the migration, reuse your test cases for regression testing, transport with governance, and get our support.

What does upgrading cost?

See the pricing page for the full version.
