    The SAP NetWeaver Gateway interface can be used by any
    programmable device that can speak HTTP(S). In providing this
    capability, it hides the complexities that exist within your
    system landscape by making use of:
    Protocol Adaptation
    OData becomes the only communication protocol needed for
    you to supply or consume SAP Business Data to or from your
    SAP systems.
    Service Adaptation
    Different types and versions of SAP systems now appear as a
    single, integrated repository of business information.
    What is OData?
    OData is a Microsoft developed extension to
    the Atom Publishing and Atom Syndication
    standards, which in turn, are based on XML OData + SAP Extensions
    and HTTP(S).
    It was designed to provide a standardized OData
    implementation of a RESTful API. In doing so, it
    offers database-like access to server-side Atom Publishing Protocol
    resources. Hence, OData is described as:
    Atom Syndication Format
    ODBC for the Web
    It can be used freely without the need for a XML
    license or contract.
    HTTP
    OData is also extensible. This allows SAP to
    supplement the data types used by OData with
    extra information from the ABAP Data
    Dictionary.

    Data Model :
    Describes the organization and relationship of data resources with
    in a business scenario.

    Data Model Elements:

    Entity Types
    Complex Types
    Associations
    Entity Sets
    Association Sets
    Function Imports
    Entity Types :
    Describe the structure of data in the Entity Data Model (EDM).
    Entity types represent a specific type of data, for example an item
    or a concept.

    The structure of an entity type is provided by its Properties.

    Properties define the characteristics of the data that an entity type instance
    will contain at runtime.

    An Entity Key is formed from a subset of the properties of the entity type.
    Association :
    An Association is a named relationship between two entity types.
    Every association includes two association ends, which specify the entity
    types that are related and the cardinality rules for each end of the
    association.

    Navigation Properties :
    Describe the navigation path between the relationship of an
    entity. It is the property of an Entity that represents a link from the Entity to
    one or more related Entities.
    Complex Types :
    Complex types are structural types similar to an entity type; the main
    difference is that complex types have no identity and cannot support
    associations.

    Unlike entity types, complex types cannot form either end of an


    association between data objects, and therefore you cannot define
    navigation properties for complex types.

    Entity Sets :
    Used to group together instances of an entity type together with
    instances of any type that are derived from this particular entity type.
    Association Sets :

    An Association Set groups Association instances. Hence, it specifies a


    relationship between two Entity Sets based on the respective Entity Types
    of the underlying Association.

    Function Imports :

    Service operations that can be invoked by the HTTP methods GET or


    POST for anything that cannot be mapped to the standard CRUD
    operations.
    Redefining Services :

    Redefine a service
    Extend the existing model
    Overwrite existing model

    Redefining Services from External Framework :

    Service Provider Interface (SPI)
