applications using the Internet Explorer control in its shell.

2. NWBC for HTML is a browser based version using HTTP/s for connecting to a SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP backend. SAP GUI transactions are rendered using the SAP GUI for HTML.

SAP GUI integration SAP GUI for Windows (more applications, better performance) SAP GUI for HTML
Perfomance aspects Client:
The program running on the desktop consumes main memory in the magnitude of 100 MB.

Network :
2 HTTP requests with a payload of typically 50 KB (this depends on the role setup) to read the complete navigation tree. Further sporadic small HTTP requests are fired to the server to resolve navigation targets which are needed to start additional applications. This data is also only fetched once on demand and from then onwards cached on the client.

Server:
1 ABAP session with a lifetime of 15 seconds and main memory consumption of approximately 3 MB.

Client:
Browsers need minimal resources to render the HTML representation of the navigation tree. This can be neglected.

Network :
Each shell interaction step: 1 HTTP request with a payload of typically 20 KB.

Server:
Each interaction step: 1 ABAP session with a lifetime of 15 seconds and main memory consumption of approximately 3 MB.
