Sprint in Context
The next release of CONNECT intends to include the features listed below, which were approved by the CONNECT change control board and the Federal Health Architecture Managing Board.
1. CONNECT adopters shall have the ability to increase throughput targeting increased numbers of PD, QD, RD, AD, and DS transactions
2. CONNECT adopters shall have the ability to exchange and process large payload sizes of up to 1 GB
3. CONNECT adopters shall have the ability to run on additional application servers such as WebSphere and WebLogic to meet their environment needs
4. CONNECT adopters shall have the ability to get more comprehensive performance logging and metric data (counts and duration) using improved logging in CONNECT
5. CONNECT adopters shall be able to determine the state of a transaction across messages in order to better troubleshoot and analyze the operation of CONNECT and their trading partners
6. CONNECT adopters shall have the ability to minimize deployment load by supporting a lightweight gateway which allows smaller server footprint and use of system resources and allows the federal partners to maximize the use of their custom-built adapters.
7. As a CONNECT user, I need CONNECT to integrate with and support the Direct Project specifications
See this page for details on the features for CONNECT 4.0. See this page for CONNECT 4.0 Sprint Planning, which shows how each sprint moves us toward the release plan.
