Abstract
A method, computer program product, and system includes a processor(s) obtaining, at a first connector, contextual information related to one or more additional connectors within a potential communication path of the first connector, where each of the one or more additional connectors initializes data transmission connections to a respective application. The processor(s) accesses usage policy metadata of a second application (the respective application of a second connector of the one or more additional connectors). The processor(s) determines whether initializing a data transmission connection between the first application and the second application is consistent with the contextual information related to the second connector and the usage policy metadata. Based on determining that the contextual information and the usage policy metadata are inconsistent, the processor(s) transmits an error. Based on determining that the contextual information and the usage policy metadata are consistent, the processor(s) initializes the data transmission.
