Exstream as an integration tool

OpenText Exstream Communications Server is not just a document production system. It is also a powerful and effective integration platform.

Possibility of connection via several protocols and practically all data sources, super-fast conversion process, and delivery to almost any location – this is the very essence of an integration tool, right?

 

Many of you know everything about how we retrieve data from different systems and create new content. It can be input from the ERP system that is enriched with data from production databases or CRM systems. This can then be delivered in various formats to recipients. For example, email with a CSV file and a PDF or FTP with XML and PDF. In this process, the input data is processed in the form of sorting, calculation, or other additional information. Data is formatted using drivers to create printouts, PDF documents, or conversion to various other file formats such as CSV, XML, JSON, etc.

Complex orchestrations can be built for different flows. Many often to links where multiple sources are used to be sent to a data receiver, or a data source as a basis for different content to different recipients. Some integrations go only one way, while others are more complex with two-way communication with updates in all involved systems.

Exstream handles both high volume and large amounts of data with fast response. Flow can be set up with immediate or scheduled delivery.

There are several ready-made components, called connectors, to connect to incoming and outgoing data sources. For example, JMS, HTTP, FTP, ODBC, SMTP, TCP / IP, and MQ. These are parameter controlled and do not need to be “coded” from scratch. Which also simplifies testing. It is also possible to make specially adapted components. We´ve already made java components for M3 API and IDM ION API. The finished components contribute to the rapid development of new solutions.

Since you all have a license to use Exstream, utilizing the system will further contribute to lower total costs for your company.
