CloudStreams Connector
A connector represents an integration interface to the provider using a specific communication channel. Examples of connectors are Salesforce Partner SOAP API and Bulk REST API.
The type of a CloudStreams connector depends on the type of SaaS provider with which you communicate. The two types of connectors are as follows:
*If you communicate with a SOAP-based cloud application provider, you create cloud connections using a CloudStreams SOAP connector.
*If you communicate with a REST-based provider, you create cloud connections using a CloudStreams REST connector.
Note:
Both SOAP and REST connectors support connectivity with providers that expose Streaming API connectivity.
