Adapters

In addition to the full set of adapters provided in version 5.1 SP01, Event Stream Processor 5.1 SP02 includes support for three new adapters.

The new SAP Remote Function Calls (RFC) Input adapter executes RFCs to import data from SAP systems into Event Stream Processor, while the SAP RFC Output adapter exports data from Event Stream Processor into SAP systems. This adapter also publishes statistics to the _ESP_Adapter_Statistics metadata stream. Subscribe to this metadata stream to view statistics specific to the SAP RFC adapter.

The new Web Services (SOAP) Input and Output adapters are SOAP Web services clients which connect to a Web service to obtain data to feed into Event Stream Processor and deliver output from Event Stream Processor to a Web service. This adapter also publishes statistics to the _ESP_Adapter_Statistics metadata stream. Subscribe to this metadata stream to view statistics specific to the Web Services (SOAP) adapter.

The new ESP Web Services Provider receives data from a Web service client and publishes it to an ESP stream or window within an ESP project.
