Integration is the exchange of information between applications. Data and process integrations can be categorized as either event-driven or batch-loaded.
An event-driven integration is implemented for processes with on-demand data requirements and smaller payloads so records can be created to trigger additional workflow in the system. Event driven integration records usually go through an external queuing table called the ECC Queue.
Batch-loaded or a data-loaded based integration is typically done with a scheduled import set, where mappings and scripts are defined to gather data from specified sources and transform them into table records.
Processing is triggered by a variety of methods and can occur at different points in the workflow. Integration is achieved using a variety of protocols: SOAP, JSON, JDBC and ODBC, or programmatic retrieval of excel binary format, HTTP, XML and PDF data through an HTTP GET request.
