Services

Services allow you to automate deployment and management of multiple connected operations.

Services in Connectware are configurations that allow for the simultaneous setup and execution of multiple operations. They follow the Infrastructure as Code principle, enabling you to manage complex setups through a single point of configuration.

What is a Service?

A service is a collection of resources and their configurations, which can include:

  • User management and permissions

  • Network connections

  • Containerized applications

  • Data processing tasks

When enabled, a service automatically implements all its defined resources. When disabled, it removes these resources, returning the system to its previous state.

How to Implement Services?

Services are defined using a service commissioning file - a YAML-formatted text file that specifies all required resources and their parameters. This file serves as a complete description of the service's components and their relationships.

Key Aspects of Services

  • They allow for consistent, repeatable deployments

  • They can be version-controlled

  • They simplify the management of complex configurations

Two features build directly on services: the Rule Engine transforms data as it flows through your mappings and endpoints, and FlowSync enables transactional data flows that carry a response or error back to the requesting system.

The following sections explain how to create, manage, and use services effectively within Connectware.
