NetWeaver Magazine - Winter 2006

The latest edition of SAP NetWeaver Magazine has been published. If you are looking from the narrow viewpoint of exclusively ABAP then there is not much here. With a broader perspective of being prepared for the new technical world of SAP then I recommend you read the cover story on the Rohm and Haas portal project. This is an excellent portrayal of where things are heading in the SAP world. There is a pretty good article on creating web portals via iViews. I believe this is what most ABAP programmers will be using in a couple of years. There is a graphic on page 62 that needs correcting. It lists a glossary of terms in the SAP Enterpirse World -and has RFC defined as a "Request for comments". Oops.
As an ABAPer I would say there is no actionable information in this magazine. As someone who wants to be employed in the SAP technical field for the next few years then I would say it was worth spending some time reading the magazine.
