Chapter 15. Serialization
15.1. Serialization and Deserialization in SwitchYard
Serialization is a process of converting an object into a binary format, which can be persisted in a database or transmitted over a network. Deserialization is a process of creating an object from binary format. In SwitchYard, the process of serialization is a concern in case of clustering and execution from a client invoker. In such cases, SwitchYard uses objects that represent the content of a SwitchYard Message or objects that are placed within a SwitchYard Exchange's Context, for serialization and deserialization.
