Integration

Its highly likely that at some point you will have to integrate your One Network Platform based solution with some other system, either internally, or as part of your partner network. Platform comes with a number of built-in integration capabilities.

To facilitate integration with external systems, all Platform models are automatically convertible to XML, JSON and CSV. These bindings and files are generated automatically as part of Studio's normal model building process. This makes it easy to get models into and out of the system. Furthermore, the integration of these models uses the actions previously mentioned in our discussion of process modeling.

Integrations are subject to permissions and configurable using state machines and workflows just like all other aspects of the system, ensuring flexibility and consistency in the validation and processing of data. Data can be integrated asynchronously through SOAP or REST calls.

Platform also comes with a built-in message-queuing infrastructure which provides support for asynchronous, message-based processing. This allows store-and-forward type communication with external systems, leading to improved reliability and monitoring capabilities.
