Chapter 13 ■ Business Connectivity ServicesFigure 13-1. Components of Business Connectivity ServicesFigure 13-1 shows that Business Connectivity Services consists of a number of component areas. Probably themost interesting to administrators are the connector framework components, which control connectivity to externaldata sources. Developers will most likely take an interest in the extensibility components, which consist of severalAPIs to develop custom entities and connectors for nonstandard data sources.You may recognize some of the components in the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise group, which includes Web Partsto surface external data, extensions, search, and use of the Secure Store Service to facilitate management of third-partyservice credentials.The grouping of Outlook 2013 components illustrates those components that enable the reuse of BusinessConnectivity Services components in Outlook. Outlook works closely with SharePoint to provide user access to lists,libraries, and feeds. Now, Outlook 2013 can aggregate certain third-party external data.Because this section is an overview of Business Connectivity Services, I shall mention some of the followingbenefits that Business Connectivity Services provides:464• True integration: Users view all external data like SharePoint data. SharePoint abstracts theend user from the external data.• Read/Write: Whereas legacy BDC (SharePoint 2007) only allowed read-only view of data,Business Connectivity Services allows write-back. Users can make changes to data in externaldata lists, and Business Connectivity Services will update the external data source.• Office application integration: Since external data surfaces via SharePoint external lists, anyOffice application that understands SharePoint list technology may query the external data.Developers may access external data via the same API they would use to open any standardlist in SharePoint.• Support for BLOBs: Business Connectivity Services supports source content in the form ofBinary Objects (BLOBs).www.it-ebooks.info
Chapter 13 ■ Business Connectivity Services• Extensive security control: Business Connectivity Services provides greater security over dataaggregated into SharePoint, as well as the various authentication methods required to accessexternal data sources.• Search Integration: Business Connectivity Services integrates in with SharePoint search,meaning users can search across external data stores, like any source internal to SharePoint.• Support for OData: Business Connectivity Services now supports Open Data protocols (HTTP,JSON, and Atom).What Is New in SharePoint 2013?Microsoft introduced Business Connectivity Services in SharePoint 2010, which replaced the Business Data Catalogfunctionality in SharePoint 2007. Business Connectivity Services also opened up external data integration toFoundation users because Business Connectivity Services is no longer solely an Enterprise license feature (some partsstill require an Enterprise license). Now, SharePoint 2013 brings additional enhancements to Business ConnectivityServices, as described in Table 13-1.Table 13-1. New Business Connectivity Services Functionality in SharePoint 2013New FeatureSharePoint can now connect to OData sourcesSharePoint can receive events fromexternal systemsDescriptionOData is a protocol that uses either HTTP, Atom, or JSON andprovides a single URL to access a data source. OData protocols area growing standard, and their use in Business Connectivity Servicesallows SharePoint to access a wealth of external data. BusinessConnectivity Services supports connection to any OData producerto aggregate data. Some examples of OData producers are:• SharePoint 2010• SQL Azure• Microsoft Dynamics CRM• Windows LiveSharePoint handles events via event receivers, attached to lists andsites. An event receiver is a piece of code that traps a particularevent and then performs an action based on this event, forexample, an action performed when a user updates a list item.Business Connectivity Services previously lacked the ability tointegrate event receivers with external lists and content types. Newto SharePoint 2013 is the ability to respond to events in externalsources, just as you do with internal lists. Thus, if a user updatescontent in an external data source, you can execute tasks and kickoff workflow tasks in response to the event.(continued)465www.it-ebooks.info
