What is an EBC (External Business Component) and how is it
different from VBC.

Answer Posted / siva kumar

EBC is a method used when there is a need to display data
which is external to siebel. The external schema is imported
into siebel tables using a wizard. Once the exteranal schema
is imported, to display this data in an applet, the
configuartion is going to be the same as creating a BC, an
Applet,a View...etc.

VBC is an older technique used in 7.x versions. To display
an external data to siebel, simply need to have a BC, which
calls
a Business Service. In the Business Service you will
specify the needed parameters like the data source and its
location etc.
