Description

TIBCO Scribe® Online Agents are lightweight Windows services that can be deployed locally or in the TIBCO Scribe® Online Cloud.  Agents communicate with the TIBCO Scribe® Online Cloud using the Web API and connect to a service bus to be in live contact with the platform.

Local or On-Premise Agents use an outbound connection to communicate with the Cloud from a local installation site eliminating the need to open your firewall to inbound traffic.  Further security restrictions are possible in this scenario.  Agents handle all data integration jobs and, depending on the source/target data, a local Agent install provides better performance.  If you are developing your own Connector, using a local Agent provides the added benefit of installing your Connector on the Agent, and running it using that Agent to connect to a custom data source.
