What is SAP Web Dispatcher in SAP BC-CST-IC - Internet Communication Manager?

SAP Term: SAP Web Dispatcher

• Component: BC-CST-IC

• Component Name: Internet Communication Manager

• Description: The SAP solution for load balancing of Web requests. If more than one instance of the SAP Web Application Server is being used at any one time, the SAP Web Dispatcher accepts requests from the browser and forwards these to the application server that currently has the most capacity. The choice of application server is based on information from the SAP Message Server. Administration is thus made much easier, as there is only one point of entry IP address, HTTP port, and so on to the SAP system.
