The ESB profile of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator (WSO2 EI) supports several inbound endpoints, but there can be scenarios that require functionality not provided by the existing inbound endpoints. For example, you might need an inbound endpoint to connect to a certain back-end server or vendor specific protocol.
To support such scenarios, you can write your own custom inbound endpoint by further extending the inbound endpoint behaviour. behavior for listening, polling, and event-based inbound endpoints.
