(ats4-dev10) creating pipeline pilot components by wrapping third-party tools
DESCRIPTION
Although we’d like Pipeline Pilot to be your Enterprise’s complete solution, there are many tools out there that offer functionality not currently available. Sometimes all you need is a one-off call to the tool, but other times it may make sense to “componentize” the tool for your users. This session will demonstrate different methods for wrapping up this functionality into an easy-to-deploy component that your users can then integrate into their protocols. Because different types of tools require different types of wrapping, we will cover different methods, possibly to include wrapping on-server tools, remotely deployed tools, and web service-based tools.TRANSCRIPT

What is a Component?
• See ATS3-DEV05 for full overview of components
• Encapsulated functionality
• Input and Output ports
• Reusable
