The Population Framework Architecture

The mechanism is similar to that of the Push Adapter framework, meaning that a user of this Population Adapter framework must provide a mapping file and a connector implementation, and bundle them together in a UCMDB adapter package.

The operation flow contains the following steps

The UCMDB user triggers the population operation from the UI.
The command is sent to the population adapter.
The population adapter calls the population connector and retrieves data in chunks.
The population adapter applies the defined mapping on data from each chunk and sends it forward to the UCMDB Server.
