About Sterling Connect:Direct and Sterling B2B Integrator Interoperability

Sterling B2B Integrator enables a business to define business processes in a software application and route data between enterprise systems using different protocols and formats.

Sterling Connect:Direct® is a peer-to-peer data transfer application that uses a proprietary protocol to exchange data between Sterling Connect:Direct servers.

The Sterling Connect:Direct Server Adapter is a component of Sterling B2B Integrator that allows Sterling B2B Integrator to act like a Sterling Connect:Direct server, sending and receiving data using the Sterling Connect:Direct protocol. The Sterling Connect:Direct Server Adapter enables you to use files from a Sterling Connect:Direct server in a Sterling B2B Integrator business process and to create business processes that exchange files with a Sterling Connect:Direct server.
