Middleware integration is increasingly becoming the architecture adopted by large companies seeking to reduce costs of ownership and adopt a more flexible and maintainable system landscape. Madiba has helped its clients with the implementation of middleware solutions to complement the SAP R/3 application and facilitate rapid development of interfaces.

Large organizations are no longer able to justify batch file based transfers of data between applications in the highly competitive “real-time” environments we are competing in. Furthermore, with the advent of Internet enabled capabilities, middleware solutions are a necessity for providing the publish-subscribe environments required for decoupling all the various applications.

Our teams of interface specialists have built interfaces between SAP R/3 and various middleware applications, including Tibco, WebMethods and SeeBeyond. Developing SAP R/3 interfaces with middleware tools requires a special skill set that Madiba brings to the client site. Our consultants have been trained in SAP R/3 Business Framework and ALE as a prerequisite to providing middleware services. This is an important differentiator, since middleware interface solutions require knowledge deep into the SAP Application.

Our development track record includes:

• Real time integration with SAP R/3 Project Systems using Tibco for Project and Work Breakdown Structure Master Data synchronization.
• Real time transfer of financial data between R/3 and Feeder Systems using Tibco and SeeBeyond systems.
• Banking data transfer using middleware tools.
• Batch interfaces between feeder applications and SAP R/3 for purchasing, payables.
