Events are generated as a result of a specific business condition being satisfied or triggered in the Siebel system. You can use events to trigger an action in your application. For example, an update to a database can reflect an update to customer information. If your application must perform an action when this happens, your application is a consumer of this event.
After you create a connection to your application system, you can add events using iWay Servlet iWay Explorer. To create an iWay event, you must create a port and a channel.
The following is a description of how ports and channels work:
A port associates a particular business object exposed by an adapter with a particular disposition. A disposition defines the protocol and location of the event data. The port defines the end point of the event consumption. For more information, see Creating an Event Port.
A channel represents configured connections to particular instances of back-end or other types of systems. A channel binds one or more event ports to a particular listener managed by an adapter. For more information, see Creating a Channel.
