different versions and implemented in different programming
languages (Java, ABAP, and so on) to each other. SAP
Exchange Infrastructure is based on an open architecture,
uses open standards (in particular those from the XML and
Java environments) and offers those services that are
essential in a heterogeneous and complex system landscape

Hi,

EP: Usage types EP Core (EPC) and Enterprise Portal (EP) bring SAP NetWeaver and applications running in it to the user in a uniform and consistent manner. They also provide the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.

MDM: SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) <a href=http://mindmajix.com/sap-mdm-interview-questions>check this site </a>Mindmajix for interview questions
enables information integrity across the business network, in a heterogeneous IT landscape. SAP MDM helps to define the business network environment based on generic and industry specific business elements and related attributes – called master data. Master data, for example, cover business partner information, product masters,product structures, or technical asset information. SAP MDM enables the sharing of harmonized master data, formerly trapped in multiple systems, and ensures cross system data consistency regardless of physical system location and vendor. It helps to align master data by providing services that recognize identical master data objects and keep them consistent. In addition, it enables the federation of business processes, by providing consistent distribution mechanisms of master data objects into other systems, within the company and across company boundaries.
