The consolidated database (or cache) can be updated by changed data at the enterprise information system (EIS) level using a data change notification (DCN) request. DCN requests can invoke arbitrary MBO operations, including alternate read operations. DCN requests are typically initiated by the EIS back end.
A DCN request is primarily meant to supply the changed data (at the back end) to Unwired Server as payload to enable updating of Unwired Server cache. The payload can contain inserts, updates, and deletions from the back end.
Unwired Server expects a DCN request via HTTP or HTTPS. The base URL for the request is:
http://<host>:<port>/onepage/servlet/UWPServlet
The format of non-string data is same as the one used in providing default values of parameters in tooling. For example, specify timestamp values in a format similar to 2009-03-04T17:03:00+05:30. Base binding names on MBO names rather than EIS names.
For MBO operations that are executed using DCN, any explicit value specified in the DCN request takes precedence over a personalized value. To use a personalized value in DCN processing, do not include the personalized parameter name and its value in the DCN request. The personalized value is then inferred by the server and added to the supplied bindings. Similarly, omit parameters with default values if the intent is to use previously specified default values.
