What is Amazon EventBridge?
Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus service that allows to connect your applications with data from a variety of sources.
Key Features
The AmazonEventBridge Adapter provides the following key features:
- Amazon EventBridge Operation Support: You can send events to event buses for further processing in your event driven systems.
- Ease of Access and Connectivity: Allows you to save connection related details on the adapter, thereby providing a convenient mode for establishing connections to any external systems.
- Dynamic configuration with headers and properties: Assigning dynamic values to different properties allows enhanced flexibility to your integration flows. You can also refer to dynamic parameters using SAP Cloud Integration exchange headers and properties.
- Multiple Event Bus Support: You can send events to a single event bus using the basic type of operation whereas the advanced operation type allows you to send events to multiple event buses at a time.
How does the AmazonEventBridge adapter work?
The AmazonEventBridge adapter is available as part of your SAP Integration Suite license.
To use the adapter, you must first add it to your Integration Flow, add the required Connection parameters, and configure it as per your Processing requirements.
Once you have configured the AmazonEventBridge adapter, the SAP CI tenant enables data exchange at runtime by sending a request to the Amazon EventBridge receiver system. Finally, after processing this request, Amazon EventBridge sends back the required data to SAP.
Let’s look at a simple operation, AmazonEventBridge Adapter is used to perform the Basic operation that writes data to the Event Bus.
