1.7.4 Support for the Connector Server

Connector Server is one of the features provided by ICF. By using one or more connector servers, the connector architecture permits your application to communicate with externally deployed bundles.

A Java connector server is useful when you do not want to execute a Java connector bundle in the same VM as your application. It can be beneficial to run a Java connector on a different host for performance improvements if the bundle works faster when deployed on the same host as the native managed resource.
