Orientation
BMC provides you with the following options to facilitate integrations with BMC and third-party products:
- BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations
- BMC Helix Developer Tools
Both of these products leverage BMC Helix Portal to provide single sign-on authentication for users.
BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations
BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations offers a systematic, automated approach to distributing valuable operations data, including event, metric, and topology information, from all domains (cloud-based, on-premises, or hybrid) to the applications and teams best positioned to achieve desired business outcomes. Liberate data from application, network, storage, database, cloud and other siloed IT operations domains for use in AIOps, advanced IT analytics, decision support, and visualization tools via a simple, scalable, resilient, and easy-to-configure platform, reducing integration time from months to minutes.
As a tenant administrator, you can use BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations to integrate with third-party products (cloud-based, on-premises, or hybrid) to collect event, metric, and topology data.
BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations uses REST APIs and the Webhook mechanism to communicate with a data source. BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations has the following advantages:
- Enables fast and easy automated integrations
- Provides continuous data streams from the connected data sources
- Provides a click-and-connect capability to configure an integration
The following video (3:19) provides a high-level overview of BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations.
BMC Helix Developer Tools
As a tenant administrator, you can use BMC Helix Developer Tools to integrate with multiple products to collect get event, service, and topology data.
BMC Helix Developer Tools uses a Fluentd-based framework for integration with BMC and third-party solutions to ingest data for monitoring in BMC Helix AIOps. It enables you to build custom integrations for the third-party solutions for which out-of-the-box integrations are not available. It also helps you to build integrations that enable you to collect logs from files and Amazon Web Services.
