As you mentioned, the composition tools of NetWeaver depend on which application layer you're trying to software enable. Here is a list by layer:
  • For the Presentation or UI layer, you have WebDynpro, UI Patterns and Visual Composer.
  • For the Process layer, you have the CAF Process layer, also known as Guided Procedures.
  • For the Service layer (Business logic and data model or also described as Application Service and Entity Service), you have CAF Service Layer also known as CAF Core.
