API for Amazon ElastiCache

ABAP Package /AWS1/API_ECA
ABAP SDK "TLA" ECA
ABAP Interface /AWS1/IF_ECA

The "TLA" is a Three Letter Abbreviation that appears in ABAP class names, data dictionary objects and other ABAP objects throughout the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP. The TLA for Amazon ElastiCache is ECA. This TLA helps squeeze ABAP objects into the 30-character length limit of the ABAP data dictionary.

Installation

To install the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP, import the Core transport, along with the transport for the ElastiCache module and other API modules you are interested in. A few modules are included in the Core transport itself. For more information, see the Developer Guide guide.

About The Service

Amazon ElastiCache

Amazon ElastiCache is a web service that makes it easier to set up, operate, and scale a distributed cache in the cloud.

With ElastiCache, customers get all of the benefits of a high-performance, in-memory cache with less of the administrative burden involved in launching and managing a distributed cache. The service makes setup, scaling, and cluster failure handling much simpler than in a self-managed cache deployment.

In addition, through integration with Amazon CloudWatch, customers get enhanced visibility into the key performance statistics associated with their cache and can receive alarms if a part of their cache runs hot.

Using the SDK

In your code, create a client using the SDK module for Amazon ElastiCache, which is created with factory method /AWS1/CL_ECA_FACTORY=>CREATE(). In this example we will assume you have configured an SDK profile in transaction /AWS1/IMG called ZFINANCE.

DATA(go_session)   = /aws1/cl_rt_session_aws=>create( 'ZFINANCE' ).
DATA(go_eca)       = /aws1/cl_eca_factory=>create( go_session ).

Your variable go_eca is an instance of /AWS1/IF_ECA, and all of the operations in the Amazon ElastiCache service are accessed by calling methods in /AWS1/IF_ECA.
