Creating custom connections using the Connector SDK

You can create your own connectors to interact with IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps.

The framework for creating connectors is documented in the following repository, which also hosts the Java template for new IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps Connectors: IBM/cp4waiops-connectors-java-template.

You can create your own connector for generating:

• Events
• Topology

The connector template utilizes the Connector SDK, which can be obtained from Maven central.

The goal of the Connector SDK is to abstract away the gRPC logic, provide security, and other common methods to help accelerate connector development.

Security patches, features, and issues are actively worked on, so check Maven central for the latest versions available.
