You can know about TADDM Connector and the techniques it uses through the information and links provided here.
Use the TADDM Connector to communicate with IBM® Tivoli® Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM) server using TADDM Java™ APIs (TADDM SDK).
TADDM is a management tool that supports configuration items (CIs) and relationships between them. This configuration information is collected through periodic automatic discoveries, which can scan the entire application infrastructure of a business organization. The collected data includes deployed software components, physical servers, network devices, virtual LAN and host data. In addition, TADDM provides a centralized topology view of the discovered data, change and version tracking, and report generation function.
The TADDM Connector uses Common Data Model (CDM), an IBM data integration initiative, to represent the transferred data. For more information, see Asset Integration Suite .
The TADDM Connector supports AddOnly, Delete, Iterator, Lookup, Update, and Delta operation modes.
The TADDM Connector JAR files are not present in tdi_install_dir/Jars folder, where the regular IBM Security Directory Integrator loader is used for loading JARs. The TADDM connector uses the OSGI model concept and is loaded with an OSGI loader.
