Integration Flow Engine Sample Clauses

Integration Flow Engine. Integration Flow Engine (IFE) component of the Data Spine aims to bridge the interoperability gaps at the protocol level and the data model level between the heterogeneous services communicating through the Data Spine, in order to create composite applications. To enable interoperability among the services on the fly, the IFE makes use of dataflows or “Integration Flows”. The IFE is thus designed as a dataflow management system based on the concepts from flow-based programming. It provides functionalities such as connectivity, data routing, data transformation and system mediation. The integration flows are designed and implemented as directed graphs that have ‘processors’ at their vertices and the edges represent the direction of the dataflow. The processors are of different types depending upon the functionality they provide: The processors of type ‘Protocol Connector’ address the issue of interlinking the services that use heterogeneous communication protocols, the processors of type ‘Data Transformation Processor’ provide the means for transforming between data models and message formats, etc. The edges that represent the flow of information support routing of data based on certain parameters. The IFE provides functionality for the lifecycle management of the integration flows. The IFE supports the Request-Response as well as the Pub/Sub communication pattern. An instance of the Integration Flow Engine should have built-in Protocol Connectors for standard communication protocols that are widely used in the industry. The functionality of the IFE can be extended by writing and adding custom processors to the IFE instance. For example, support for a new protocol can be added by writing a new Protocol Connector and adding it to the IFE instance. The IFE offers an intuitive, drag-and-drop style Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) to the service consumers or system integrators to create the integration flows which is based on the concepts from visual programming. This interface, the use of integration flows, and the built-in building blocks for connecting and aligning the APIs enable the users to create composite applications quickly, easily, and intuitively. The IFE and its GUI support a fine-grained access control. It is possible to define access policies to allow or restrict visibility of and/or access to certain GUI elements. In addition, the IFE supports multitenancy and grouping of integration flows into “Development Spaces”. The access to the dev...

Integration Flow Engine. Apache NiFi (NiFi) can be used to realise the IFE. It is a dataflow management platform based on the concepts of Flow-based programming. It automates the flow of information between systems through directed graphs called dataflows. The dataflows support communication, data routing, data transformation and system mediation logic with the help of ‘processors’ as their vertices. The processors are responsible for handling data ingress, egress, routing, mediation, and transformation. The edges that connect these processors with each other are called ‘Connections’. NiFi offers a Web- based, highly configurable, drag-and-drop style GUI for creating such dataflows. Figure 23 highlights the

  • Access Toll Connecting Trunk Group Architecture 9.2.1 If WCS chooses to subtend a Verizon access Tandem, WCS’s NPA/NXX must be assigned by WCS to subtend the same Verizon access Tandem that a Verizon NPA/NXX serving the same Rate Center Area subtends as identified in the LERG. 9.2.2 WCS shall establish Access Toll Connecting Trunks pursuant to applicable access Tariffs by which it will provide Switched Exchange Access Services to Interexchange Carriers to enable such Interexchange Carriers to originate and terminate traffic to and from WCS’s Customers. 9.2.3 The Access Toll Connecting Trunks shall be two-way trunks. Such trunks shall connect the End Office WCS utilizes to provide Telephone Exchange Service and Switched Exchange Access to its Customers in a given LATA to the access Tandem(s) Verizon utilizes to provide Exchange Access in such LATA. 9.2.4 Access Toll Connecting Trunks shall be used solely for the transmission and routing of Exchange Access to allow WCS’s Customers to connect to or be connected to the interexchange trunks of any Interexchange Carrier which is connected to a Verizon access Tandem.

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Freedom has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Freedom. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Freedom (e.g. hairpinning): 1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises. 2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated. 3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch. 4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch). 2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases. 2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Freedom, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Freedom will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.

  • Quality control system (i) The Contractor shall establish a quality control mechanism to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (the “Quality Assurance Plan” or “QAP”). (ii) The Contractor shall, within 30 (thirty) days of the Appointed Date, submit to the Authority’s Engineer its Quality Assurance Plan which shall include the following: (a) organisation, duties and responsibilities, procedures, inspections and documentation; (b) quality control mechanism including sampling and testing of Materials, test frequencies, standards, acceptance criteria, testing facilities, reporting, recording and interpretation of test results, approvals, check list for site activities, and proforma for testing and calibration in accordance with the Specifications for Road and Bridge Works issued by MORTH, relevant IRC specifications and Good Industry Practice; and (c) internal quality audit system. The Authority’s Engineer shall convey its approval to the Contractor within a period of 21 (twenty-one) days of receipt of the QAP stating the modifications, if any, required, and the Contractor shall incorporate those in the QAP to the extent required for conforming with the provisions of this Clause 11.2. (iii) The Contractor shall procure all documents, apparatus and instruments, fuel, consumables, water, electricity, labour, Materials, samples, and qualified personnel as are necessary for examining and testing the Project Assets and workmanship in accordance with the Quality Assurance Plan. (iv) The cost of testing of Construction, Materials and workmanship under this Article 11 shall be borne by the Contractor.

  • Network Interconnection Architecture Each Party will plan, design, construct and maintain the facilities within their respective systems as are necessary and proper for the provision of traffic covered by this Agreement. These facilities include but are not limited to, a sufficient number of trunks to the point of interconnection with the tandem company, and sufficient interoffice and interexchange facilities and trunks between its own central offices to adequately handle traffic between all central offices within the service areas at a P.01 grade of service or better. The provisioning and engineering of such services and facilities will comply with generally accepted industry methods and practices, and will observe the rules and regulations of the lawfully established tariffs applicable to the services provided.
