The configuration tasks can be performed from a GUI interface called the DataCloud Management Console (DMC) or programmatically via the API.

A single integration/product may be associated with many different sets of configurations, which allows each instance of the service to run as a new and unique service based on the contents of those parameters. One of the parameters is normally linked to the specific service requestor. Although not required, this method allows the owner of the service to track who has requested a service and how often, as well as retrieve results on their behalf.

Once an integration/product has been designed and deployed, then the provisioning can be configured and executed. Execution can be accomplished from the DMC or the API. The DMC is typically used when in the initial design and testing phases of an integration/product project, and the API is used once the service is placed into production for general consumption.

Results and log files related to the integration/product are also retrieved via the DMC or API. Subsequent services can be executed that can leverage these results.
