SAP Event Mesh vs Advanced Event Mesh: Topics, Queues, Event Contracts and Testing Asynchronous Flows
Compares the Event Mesh capability of SAP Integration Suite (formerly SAP Event Mesh) with SAP Integration Suite, advanced event mesh and shows when each fits: deployment, limits, replay, partitioned queues, meshes across regions and edge, Event Portal and Insights. Covers topic hierarchy and queue design, versioned event contracts with AsyncAPI, wiring SAP S/4HANA enterprise event enablement to a broker per stage, and the integration-layer tests (routing, DMQ, replay, ordering, backlog, wrong stage, silence) that complement the extension-focused business events course. Built on Contoso Motor Co.'s event landscape.
