Overview of InfoSphere MDM App Connect Connector

The InfoSphere® MDM App Connect connector enables cloud integration with on-premises InfoSphere MDM.

Use the InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector to expose on-premises MDM business service as REST or web service provider services. Exposing the traditional MDM service for consumption in an enterprise SaaS integration enables reading, writing, searching, and processing notifications from your on-premises MDM.

InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector supports use of these MDM editions:
  • IBM® InfoSphere Master Data Management Standard Edition 11.4.0
  • IBM InfoSphere Master Data Management Advanced Edition 11.4.0

MDM Advanced Edition has many categories of web services, such as Party, Product, Custom Addition, Custom Extension, Custom Inquiry, and Party Maintenance. All of these web services are supported in InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector. In MDM standard edition, eSOA web services are supported in InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector.

The InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector supports both JSON and XML payload. The request to MDM can be either in JSON or XML. In the background at run time, the InfoSphere MDM App Connect connector makes a web service call to MDM and when the request is sent as a JSON payload, it is internally converted to XML before performing the web service call. The corresponding response is converted back to JSON before sending the response to the downstream activity.
