Description

Micro Focus Connect Core is a data synchronization technology that provides data and relationship synchronization between products across the software development / DevOps lifecycle. It is available as a utility (Micro Focus Connect Core) free-of-charge to all Micro Focus customers to be used to synchronize data with Micro Focus products, only.
Customers must have an active support and maintenance agreement to be entitled to use MF Connect Core.

Connectors allow organizations to share up to date information across their DevOps applications and teams, giving them visibility and traceability across applications without the need for custom scripting and individual integration maintenance.

A number of connectors come pre-packaged with the base utility (Micro Focus Connect Core); other connectors must be downloaded separately (this page as well as MF Connect Core Connectors).

This Marketplace page contains the SAP Solutions Manager Connector for Micro Focus Connect Core.
This connector has been designed and validated to exchange SAP SolMan data with ALM Quality Center and ALM Octane. Data synchronization with other Micro Focus products supported by MF Connect Core is also possible.

This version allows access to the following SAP SolMan artifacts:

  • BPH (Business Process Hierarchy)
