Custom integrations
Bespoke connectors for proprietary, legacy or niche systems — files, databases, SOAP, EDI, message queues and device protocols.
Integrations for the systems nobody else supports.
6 deliverables, a 4-stage approach and 5 related technologies.
Overview
Not every system has a modern API. Some exchange CSV files over SFTP, some speak SOAP or EDI, some only offer database access. Custom integrations bridge them safely.
We build connectors for whatever interface exists, add validation and monitoring, and wrap them behind clean internal APIs so the rest of your platform stays simple.
What we deliver
- Interface analysis
- Custom connector
- Validation and transformation rules
- Monitoring and alerting
- Internal API wrapper
- Runbook for failures
