Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate the transfer of data from a source system to a recipient system in instances in which the source and recipient systems process data having different data stream types, such as differently formatted data. In regards to a method, data is received from any one of a plurality of source systems, each of which has a respective first data stream type. The method determines a recipient system from among a plurality of candidate recipient systems and determines a second data stream type accepted by the recipient system. The method directs the data to a first processing module of a plurality of processing modules based upon the source system, the recipient system and the first and second data stream types. The method processes the data with the first processing module based upon a recipient system and its second data stream type.
