The webMethods Siebel Adapter is an add-on to the webMethods Integration Server that enables you to exchange data with Siebel applications. The adapter provides seamless, real-time communication to and from Siebel applications without requiring changes to your existing application infrastructure.

Using the Siebel Adapter, Integration Server clients can run adapter services that retrieve data from, write data to, and invoke methods in Siebel applications. Clients can also interact with webMethods from a Siebel application. To do this, they can use the webMethods COM interface or custom Siebel business service methods known as EAI webMethods Transports.

For example, you might use the Siebel Adapter to receive new information about a sales contact from an Integration Server client (IS client), and then update a Contact business component record in the Siebel application.
