Technical Systems

A technical system describes a part of a product's software that is installed on one or several hosts. It is installed and administered as a whole. It is identified by a system ID or extended system ID, a host, and an installation number. There are different technical system types, for example Application Server (AS) ABAP, AS Java, or TREX. Technical systems are central elements when it comes to software component deployment and operational activities, such as monitoring and alerting.
