Re: [Dev] Are Binary and Thrift protocols used in WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Specific?
Thanks @vidura...@wso2.com & @dusha...@wso2.com, BTW what I am confused most is the usage of 'Binary' type for Throttle data publishing as mentioned in Gateway, in api-manager.xml as belows. true true Binary tcp://[Traffic-Manager-host]:9611 ssl://[Traffic-Manager-host]:9711 ... And eventhough @dusha...@wso2.com has mentioned that Thrift is a Binary protocol, below configuration in wso2am-2.1.0/repository/conf/data-bridge/data-bridge-config.xml confuses me. .. .. 7611 7711 9611 9711 100 100 So it is like, API Manager uses tcp port 7611 for Thrift and tcp port 9611 for Binary. So probably Thirft and Binary are two different protocols. I would like to find a comparison between these two. And I am searching for a reference about this 'Binary' type as mentioned above. Highly appreciate a response on this issue.

[Dev] Are Binary and Thrift protocols used in WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Specific?
Hi devs, When reading through wso2 documentation I see that two protocols called 'Thrift' and 'Binary' are used for certain communication scenarios in API Manager. i.e. Throttle data publishing, Key Validation. [1] But I cannot see any outside external sources about these two protocols. So are these two protocols, just WSO2 Specific ( introduced by WSO2) ? If not, please provide references describing about these two protocols.

[Dev] Difference between primary and secondary use stores
Hi devs, I have some confusion on user store types in wso2 products. Please give some assistance. What is the difference between primary and secondary user stores in wso2 products? What is the exact requirement to have two different types of user stores as this? Why isn't it just "user stores" generally? What are the different tasks done by these two categories?
