Output Adapter Algorithm (Out-of-process)

A description of how the algorithm of a typical out-of-process output adapter operates.

  1. Get the URI of the stream to read from.

  2. Connect to that stream.

  3. Connect to the output data destination (this is specific to the application).

  4. Wait for messages (rows) from the input stream.

  5. When you receive a message, read the data and write whatever is appropriate to the output destination.

  6. Disconnect.
