Overview

TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Apache Pulsar provides out-of-the-box activities and triggers to send and receive messages. You can connect to your Apache Pulsar broker using transport layer security (TLS) or JSON Web Token (JWT).

Configure triggers that subscribe to messages published to a topic, including Exclusive, Shared, Failover, or KeyShared subscription types. Use activities to send messages to a topic by mapping string or JSON content, with optional compression.

Apache Pulsar is popularly used for the following purposes:
  • To subscribe to messages produced by edge computing devices and perform transformation or analysis on them.
  • To publish messages on any broker and topic in your network based on the state of the flow. You can send the results of the flow to a topic.
Note: You should not use Linux/x86 option to build the application in TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise as Apache Pulsar works only on a 64 bit machine. You must install the GNU compiler collection (GCC) compiler on the Windows machine to generate windows executable pulsar application from builder-windows-amd64.exe tool on Flogo® Enterprise. For information about how to use Apache Pulsar, see Apache Pulsar documentation.
