The SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure combines the characteristics and advantages of local development environments – as usually provided in a Java environment – with a server-based development landscape that centrally provides a consistent development environment to development teams and supports the software development through the entire lifecycle of a product.
The Developer Infrastructure mimics the functionality of ABAP Change and Transport System. The aim is to control deployment of components in the system landscape in a standardized manner. NWDI can be used to import Business Packages from SAP and enables development teams to modify standard applications.SAP NWDI is also known as SAP JDI. The latter term is considered to be obsolete.
