I am looking for the best/quickest way to get a bunch of Java WARs deployed to NetWeaver. From what I am gathering, it appears that they may need to first be packaged as EARs? Then, I have read that NetWeaver Developer Studio can be used to deploy applications. Is this the preferred/quickest option? Are there alternative ways, such as through NetWeaver's administration console or via a Maven plugin?
I am trying to download NetWeaver Developer Studio, but it is proving difficult to find where to download it from on sap.com. If I go to http://www.sap.com/platform/netweaver/components/index.epx --> SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio this will take me to SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer, which doesn't seem to be right? Or is it? Can you please provide me with the correct location for a SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio (preferably for Linux).
Also, as a follow on question, how or where can I configure NetWeaver to have a JNDI data source?
