What is sidecar system in SAP SV-SMG-LDB - ?

SAP Term: sidecar system

• Component: SV-SMG-LDB

• Component Name:

• Description: Landscape Management Database Technical system that is connected to only one ABAP-based backend system within one product system. The sidecar system is closely connected to the ABAP-based backend system, so the application and the underlying SAP NetWeaver versions of both systems are synchronized and fully updated. There are exceptions, when a sidecar system is updated independently of the assigned product system, for example for a technology-driven upgrade to SAP NetWeaver 7.3. In this case, an extra SAP NetWeaver 7.3 product system must be created for the sidecar system. The opposite of a sidecar system is a hub system.

• Key Concepts: 
  A sidecar system is a type of SAP system that is used to supplement an existing SAP system. It is typically used to provide additional functionality or to extend the capabilities of the existing system. The sidecar system is connected to the existing SAP system via a component called SV-SMG-LDB, which stands for System View-System Management Gateway-Logical Database. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The sidecar system can be used to add additional functionality or extend the capabilities of an existing SAP system. For example, it can be used to add new features or enhance existing features. It can also be used to provide additional data storage or processing capabilities. To use a sidecar system, the SV-SMG-LDB component must be installed and configured on both the existing SAP system and the sidecar system. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a sidecar system, it is important to ensure that the SV-SMG-LDB component is properly configured on both systems. This will ensure that the two systems are able to communicate with each other and that data can be exchanged between them. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the sidecar system has sufficient resources available for its operations.
