External Resources

External resources are objects through which AquaLogic BPM can connect and interact with external resources such as Web services, databases, or server configurations.

Note: Designers may configure external resources in ALBPM Studio for testing purposes when they design a project. When the project is moved from a development environment to a production environment, you should use the topics in this section to review and re-configure the external resources to work in the new environment.

Adding an External Resource
When you create an external resource, you are configuring the connection parameters for connecting to the external resource.

A number of external types are supported. They are listed in this section.
Deleting an External Resource
You can remove an delete an external resource when it is no longer required. Doing so does not remove the underlying resource, it simply removes the reference to it.
