Multi-Project Concurrent Integration

Cobra leverages the PM Compass Process Server to implement the multi-project concurrent integration feature.

You can load a single import file with data from multiple projects concurrently instead of sequentially when using Integration > File. This means if there are 10 projects in the import file, Cobra will load these projects all at the same time.

Cobra creates a single-project integration for each project and submits that integration job to PM Compass Process Server. PM Compass then distributes each integration job to a Cobra Web Service.

Cobra submits a single job (.csv file) containing multiple projects. When it gets submitted to the Cobra Process Server, the server breaks that job up into a bunch of smaller individual jobs, one for each project. The Cobra Web Service Gateway Service distributes each integration job to one or more Cobra Web Services.

Before You Begin

Before you use this feature, it is important to understand the following information and requirements:

• You must fully understand the requirements and the steps in setting up your environment to run a concurrent process. Refer to Deltek PM Compass and Cobra Concurrency Solution Setup and Configuration Guide.
• You are integrating an import file with data from multiple projects.

Note: Multi-project concurrent integration is not yet supported in the Cobra API.
