The WmCloudStreams package is a component of IBM webMethods platform, specifically designed for integrating and processing data from cloud-based services and systems into the webMethods platforms. The WmCloudStreams package comprises of various services, APIs and assets for creating and managing cloud services and making API calls to SaaS providers. The key features include:
Connectivity to cloud-based systems such as databases and messaging services, ensuring smooth integration with on-premise systems.
Integration of real-time data from cloud applications, IoT devices, and other sources into webMethods.
Support for streaming data, enabling real-time collection, processing, and action.
Support for event-driven architecture that triggers actions based on specific data changes or arrivals of new data.
Key points to remember when using the WmCloudStreams package are as follows:
WmCloudStreamsAPI And WmCloudStreamsAnalytics are not bundled with this WmCloudStreams Package.
A restart of the Integration Server (IS) is required when the package is installed for the first time on a clean, vanilla IS.
To connect to specific SaaS providers, additional Integration Server providers, also known as connector providers, must be installed. These providers are built to specific SaaS platforms and include the necessary connector components for establishing the connection. They also have a dependency on the WmCloudStreams provider. Therefore, if a user installs a connector provider package before the WmCloudStreams package, the WmCloudStreams provider is installed before the connector package.
