Using the MOM Connector Framework Class Library

  • Article

The MOM Connector Framework (MCF) is a .NET Framework class library that supports the development of custom connectors between MOM and other management products. The MCF can be used as either a local class library or a Web Service.

The advantages of using the MCF to build a MOM connector include:

  • Support for connector applications running on non-Windows platforms through the MCF Web Service.
  • A consistent, reusable framework for developing connector applications.
  • Increased performance compared to other methods of querying alert data.
  • Access to an alert's Product Knowledge content.
