Publish Records

The following Publish types are available in TIBCO Product and Service Catalog powered by EBX:

Full Publishing of Data - All the records for a selected table in an environment are published while performing Full Publish of Table. In case of a PRODUCT table, if there are any changes to the offerID then the OfferIdMappings.xml file is also published. It is also generated in case of full publish whenever there is value present for offerID and OfferIDext attributes.
Delta Publishing of Data - The Delta Publish of catalog can also be referred to as incremental publish. When you have an environment with a considerable amount of table data, and if you make minor changes to the data, publishing all the data for a small increment takes a lot of time because the entire data set is published.

The following Publish modes are available:

FILE - Offline publication mode where records are published on the file system.
JMS - Online publication mode, records are published on JMS topic.
BOTH - Online and Offline publication mode where records are published on the file system and JMS topic.
