Difference Between Adapter Notification and Adapter Service

Hi All,

Can you please tell me the difference between Adapter Notification and Adapter Service?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Sherry

If talking about the JDBC Adapter for example:

Adapter Notification: (Triggers a publish of a document possibly containing the data that has changed in the database table e.g. Insert/Update)

Adapter Service: (Allows you to make Inserts/Updates/Query the tables in your database)

e.g. An Update notification in one table by a client app, may trigger an update/insert of another table via an Adapter Service.

Thanks Dezi.
