I sent this response to a few people who emailed me already: Check out: http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-gateway http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-gateway http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-27405 http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-27405 Especially check out SAP Fiori - http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-41598 http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-41598 - this is SAP's unified workflow app. Basically SAP has put a lot of effort into taking it's old archaic back-end and making it "open", and Gateway enables backend systems like ERP/CRM/etc. to be able to talk to any RESTful front-ends (mobile, js, etc). Go ahead and play with their oData demo system: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-31221 http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-31221 Let me know if you have any other questions!
