Inbound and Outbound Connectors: "Woah, it's so easy!"

Camunda Community Podcast

Connectors are reusable building blocks that can communicate with any system or technology, providing unlimited flexibility and reducing the time it takes to automate and orchestrate business processes. Ever since we introduced Connectors with Camunda Platform 8, excitement has been growing and we’ve added more and more of them to meet the ever-increasing number of use cases.

In this episode, Senior Technical Community Builder Mia Moore chats with Bastian Korber, senior product manager for Connectors and the Integration Framework, about Outbound and Inbound Connectors, their architectures, example use cases, and what’s next. Listen to learn about the main differences between the two, how Connectors can be deployed to build better processes and save you time, and why Bastian calls Inbound Connectors a “game-changer.”
