A new feature, Integrated Configurations, is introduced in PI 7.1. This feature allows us to configure an end-to-end scenario that will process messages locally in the Advanced Adapter Engine (AAE), bypassing the Integration Engine (ABAP stack of the Integration Server). The Advanced Adapter Engine is the new name in PI 7.1 for the Adapter Engine.
The primary objective of using local processing in the AAE is to increase the performance of message processing by eliminating the need for the ABAP stack during the process. By bypassing the ABAP stack, the message processing will still keep the existing mapping, monitoring and support functionalities.
Since the ABAP stack no longer participates in the processing of messages, therefore, any functionality provided by ABAP will not be available when the Integrated Configurations option is selected for message processing.
A detail article of the step-by-step guide, as well as the benefits and limitations of using "Integrated Configurations" in PI 7.1's AAE is available from:
