What needs to be created to allow integration flows in App Connect Designer or App...

In IBM App Connect, when integrating flows across a hybrid environment (a combination of cloud and on-premises systems), an Integration Agent is required to enable callable flows.

Callable flows allow one integration flow to invoke another flow that may be running in a different environment (on-premises or cloud).

The Integration Agent acts as a bridge between IBM App Connect Designer (cloud-based) or App Connect Dashboard and the on-premises resources.

It ensures secure and reliable communication between different environments.

Option A (Incorrect – Switch server): No such component is needed in App Connect for hybrid integrations.

Option B (Incorrect – Mapping assist): This is used for transformation support but does not enable cross-environment callable flows.

Option C (Correct – Integration agent): The Integration Agent is specifically designed to support callable flows across hybrid environments.

Option D (Incorrect – Kafka): While Kafka is useful for event-driven architectures, it is not required for invoking callable flows between App Connect instances.
