Description
This agent takes an input product, serializes it, compresses it, and sends this strean of bytes to a acceptSerializedProduct PIM listening on a remote socket. Unlike the limitations of sending products (<64K) over UDP as with the putUDP DIM, this agent can send products of any conceivable size.Configuration Variables
destinationHostThe host machine where the serialized products will be sent.destinationPort
The port to talk to the host on.compressionLevel
The level of compression to use (0 - 9). 0 = no compression (Default), 9 = max compressionHow it works
This DIM uses Java serialization to turn the outgoing product into an ObjectOutputStream, which is compressed using the selected compression level and written to the output stream of a socket.
