March 28, 2023 · 4 min read

Implementing DevOps for your SAP Cloud Integration is essential to streamline processes and foster collaboration between development and operations teams. There are various tools available for DevOps on SAP Cloud Integration, such as SAP’s Project Piper, Jenkins, or your favorite pipeline tool you can setup a lot of things in. Setting this up can be an interesting learning journey, but it will require effort to get started. You will be able to build the flows that supports your business.

Introduction

As I see it a DevOps setup gives you more details than using a transport tool like CTS+ or Cloud Transport Management by giving users a way to process more of the flow. DevOps can leverage this setup or they can be standalone.

At Figaf, we understand the challenges of implementing DevOps for SAP Cloud Integration and have worked diligently to make it easy and accessible for you. With our solution, you can set up a DevOps flow for your SAP Integration in as little as 20 minutes. This blog post will give you an overview of our approach of what will be possible.

Figaf is built for SAP Integration developers, focusing on the tasks they need to perform and how to make it as fast as possible and in a simple flow.

The Figaf solution

Our primary goal at Figaf is to create a streamlined DevOps flow for handling SAP Integration, saving you time and effort while ensuring a reliable and efficient process. Here are some key features of our solution:

Quick and Easy Setup: With Figaf, you can have your DevOps environment up and running in just 20 minutes (see demonstration video above). Our intuitive user interface and guided setup process make it simple for you to configure your DevOps flow according to your organization’s specific requirements.

Automated Testing: Our solution includes automated testing capabilities, allowing you to validate your SAP Cloud Integration scenarios and ensure they meet your organization’s quality standards. This reduces the risk of deploying faulty integrations and streamlines the testing process.

This will also help you in the SAP PI/PO to Integration Suite migration where you can test the integrations work the same way after you have performed the migration.

Continuous Deployment: Figaf’s solution supports continuous deployment, enabling you to deploy your SAP Cloud Integration scenarios with minimal manual intervention. This not only saves time but also ensures that your integrations are always up-to-date and in line with your organization’s requirements.

Review process: Transport should be reviewed by a different person. The architect will be able to compare what is changed between two releases. Either in our graphical overview, a code diff, Mapping diff or external configurations.

Comprehensive Monitoring: With Figaf’s monitoring capabilities, you can easily track the performance of your SAP Cloud Integration scenarios and receive alerts for any issues that may arise. This helps you proactively address potential problems and maintain the stability of your integrations.

Virtual Tenants: This allows you to reuse your development system for both Dev and QA but still have a transport process in place that simplifies your development. I know a lot of customers have this in place, but you need excellent governance to make it work. With our transport process all of that is handled by the transports like any other setup.

Documentation and governance: You cannot operate anything if you do not have good governance. With Figaf you can document all changes to your SAP Integration Suite that you need and register all changes.

Git repository: All packages, iFlows, mappings, script collections and value mappings are continuously updated each time a change is detected. This allows you to easy search your integration, start developing your Groovy in an external editor, or setup pipelines like CPILint on your integration.
