What are the pros and cons of integrating contract management APIs directly with SAP BTP versus using third-party middleware platforms like MuleSoft?

From operational perspective, middleware platforms have better monitoring and troubleshooting tools. When a contract synchronization fails at 2 AM, I can quickly see the error in MuleSoft dashboard, replay the message, and resolve it. With BTP, the logging and debugging experience is more fragmented. You’re navigating multiple SAP tools to piece together what went wrong. For production support, that operational simplicity matters.
