An SKP connector is the Syniti component that allows the Syniti Knowledge Platform to communicate with systems in your landscape. A single SKP connector can support metadata scanning, profiling and Cloud DQ functionality. One SKP connector can be connected to multiple systems. One system can be related to multiple SKP connectors (e.g., two separate SKP connectors: one for executing Cloud DQ and one for executing Cloud DM).
