About Sun Adapter for Batch

All Adapters provide a communication bridge between the eGate environment and one or more external systems.

The Batch Adapter performs a variety of FTP and FTP-related operations (depending on your specific needs, network environment, record-processing, file transfer, and external system requirements). The Batch Adapter enables Sun Java CAPS ESB to use an FTP connection to exchange data with other network hosts for the purpose of receiving and delivering objects stored in files.

Batch Adapter OTDs

The Batch Adapter provides Object Type Definitions (OTDs) that enable the creation of file transfer operations using FTP.

The Batch Adapter includes seven specific OTDs:

• BatchFTP: The FTP OTD connects to external FTP servers.

• BatchFTPOverSSL: The FTP over SSL OTD provides secure data transfer using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

• BatchSCP: The SCP OTD provides secure data transfer using Secure Copy Protocol with Secure Shell (SSH) as an underlying protocol.

• BatchSFTP: The SFTP OTD provides secure data transfer using SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP protocol). SFTP protocol provides a range of operations on remote files, such as directory listings, and remote file removal.

• BatchLocalFile: The local file OTD picks up or puts data files to local file systems.

• BatchRecord: The record-processing OTD extracts records out of files, parses files into specific records, and defines the content of files as records.

• BatchInbound: The inbound OTD receives a file, renames the file with GUID file name, and triggers the Business Process or Collaboration.

  Note - The Batch Adapter supports standard FTP in accordance with RFC-959.
