SAP- Facts

System Landscape.
Can you explain the system landscape in your current project? How many times have you cringed on being asked above question? Find the answer below.

In any project, we find three environments.
1) Development Environment
2) Test Environment
3) Production Environment (where the end users and customers will work actually)

The system landscape can be defined, if you know how the above environments are implemented.

Scenario 1.

Development Server
Client 000- Golden client, for customization
Client 120 - Code Development
Client 130 - used for unit testing

Test Server
Client 120 - For Testing

Production Server
Client 010- Live Production

in this scenario, three environments are deployed on three different servers. we have three servers altogether. One for development, one for Test and another for Production.
Development server is again having three clients. Client 000 is used by SAP functional consultants for configuration changes. 120 are used by ABAP consultants to develop the code.
Client 130 is used for unit testing in development server.

The TEST and PRODUCTION servers are having one client each.
Remember you don't find client 800 in any project, as we can see it only in IDES SAP learning implementation.

We will see few other scenarios in coming days, I will try to explain with diagrams.
