Is live sharing only meant for consultation or can a user “work” with the shared data?
We’re looking to use data shared from another DMS in our services, correlation rules, to build custom dashboards with data from both, live shared data and our local data. In the past, we followed these recommendations data sharing between different DMS – DataMiner Dojo perhaps this is still the best way.
There are definitely evolutions in the latest version of DataMiner that need to be considered in the context of this type of use case. I would recommend considering the following options:
- The latest version of DataMiner has user-definable webhooks. This essentially allows you to use standard automation scripting in DataMiner to create on the fly new APIs. This way you can easily and quickly create a bespoke solution tailored to your specific needs to create inter-system data flows. This could be towards third party systems or other DataMiner Systems.
- In the last feature release, we now have this capability to fetch external data on the fly in a GQI – no doubt that this can also be considered to fetch data from one DataMiner System and bring it to the other.
Of course the earlier techniques also are still valid and off value. I guess it is mainly a matter of checking what the pro’s and cons are of each, in light of the exact use case.
