What is an EBC (External Business Component) and how is it different from VBC...

Answer / amit kumar

EBC is uded to configure applets to disply data frm an
external source(tables which dom\not belong to the Siebel
Schema) but we require to import the Externl Table mapping
by using the wizard for importing externl schema.

The EBC will be configured on this table(the one imported
through the wizard).

VBC does not require to be mapped to any table.
Also VBC needs to be associated with a Business Service
whereas in EBC this is not reqired

What is an EBC (External Business Component) and how is it different from VBC...

Answer / siva kumar

EBC is a method used when there is a need to display data
which is external to siebel. The external schema is imported
into siebel tables using a wizard. Once the exteranal schema
is imported, to display this data in an applet, the
configuartion is going to be the same as creating a BC, an
Applet,a View...etc.

VBC is an older technique used in 7.x versions. To display
an external data to siebel, simply need to have a BC, which
calls
a Business Service. In the Business Service you will
specify the needed parameters like the data source and its
location etc.
