Recommendation We strongly recommend using the OData Channel
(ODC) programming paradigm for all SAP NetWeaver Gateway
development. As of SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 Support Package 05,
you are strongly recommended to use the Service Builder
(transaction SEGW) for your OData design-time development . For
more information, see SAP NetWeaver Gateway Service Builder.
Depending on whether you want to develop SAP NetWeaver Gateway
content in an SAP Business Suite backend system or in an SAP
NetWeaver Gateway hub system, you can choose between embedded
deployment or central hub deployment. For more information, see
Embedded Versus Hub Deployment andDeployment Options.

configuration activities for the SAP Business Suite backend system
