Acknowledgments

I would like to dedicate this book to my wife Puja and my son Arjun, who supported and encouraged me despite all the endless hours, evenings, and weekends that I took away from them.

I would also like to thank Kelly Grace Weaver for the trust placed in me and for the opportunity to write this book. I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to the editor, Hareem Shafi, and development editor, Will Jobst, who supported me every step of the way, from the ideas in every chapter of this book to its publication, and for providing advice and help always.

My final—yet very important—thanks goes to the entire SAP PRESS team involved in creating this book.
