Term: ApiProbe

A Probe that accesses a data source on its own without being pre-processed by the InfoGrid Probe Framework.

Most often, this is used to access an application programming interface (API) or web service, instead of a byte stream. For the latter, a NonXmlStreamProbe or a XmlDOMProbe is typically used.
