Production Checklist

Once you download and install ESB Streaming Integrator, you may need to update its default configurations based on your requirements.

The changes that you need to make include the following:

Providing access

Multiple users with various roles in your organization can require access to your ESB Streaming Integrator installation to carry out different activities. In order to manage the level of access provided to each user based on their roles, you are required to configure users roles and permissions. For instructions, see User Management.

Securing the Streaming Integrator

ESB SI is an open-source product. Therefore, anyone who downloads it has access to the default users and passwords, default keystore settings, etc. Therefore, you are required to update the configurations related to security in order to ensure that your data is secure when you run ESB SI in a production environment. For more information, see the following topics:

Opening the required ports

This involves configuring the network firewall for opening the ports used by ESB Streaming Integrator. For more information about the required ports, see Configuring Default Ports.

Setting up databases

If you are integrating data stores in your Streaming Integration flows, you need to set up databases. For information about supported database types and how to configure data sources for them, see Configuring Datasources.

Configuring Transports

In order to use certain transports to receive and send data, you are required to configure them with ESB Streaming Integrator. For more information, see Supporting Different Transports.

Minimizing the impact of system failure

In order to minimize the loss of data that can result from a system failure, you can configure ESB Streaming Integrator to periodically save its state in a database. For more information, see Configuring Database and File System State Persistence.

Creating Business Rules templates

If you want to allow business users with limited coding knowledge to write business rules, you can template Siddhi applications and queries. For more information, see Working with Business Rules.

Monitoring the Streaming Integrator

To monitor the performance of your Streaming Integrator setup, configure ESB SI to publish its statistics in Dashboards as described in Configuring Grafana Dashboards.
