TECHNIA Integration Framework
Built to cover ALL enterprise INTEGRATION needs to and from 3DEXPERIENCE.
The TECHNIA Integration Framework (TIF), taking PLM integrations for enterprise systems to a whole new level when it comes to configurability and low cost of ownership. Integration Framework will reduce complexity for your enterprise integrations, while bringing flexibility and speed of implementation up. This is achieved by providing a supported software that will plug into your enterprise integration architecture.
What is the TECHNIA Integration Framework?
A Supported Software
A software product fully supported and upgradeable, that integrates enterprise applications based on industry standards such as JMS, AMQP and web services, and is scalable to meet the largest implementations.
A Development Toolkit
Offers simple configuration capabilities for setting up new integration use cases, and provides advanced capabilities to further extend Integration Framework integration use cases without customization
A Framework
Proven architecture and framework perfect for configuring and developing integration use cases. Best practices built in from more than 30 ENOVIA integration projects.
A Modern Technology
The Integration Framework is based on modern technologies and integration standards with connectors available for 3DEXPERIENCE and many enterprise integrations software, enabling smooth integrations to other systems like ERP.
What are the main capabilities?
Multiple Integration Techniques
- Messaging, integrations based on JMS, AMQP or NativeMQ. Configurable message content with optional validation against corporate integration contracts (XML Schema, stylesheet). Messages can be setup to be delivered to various destinations e.g. message broker, http, ftp, file.
- Web Services, a set of configurable services for import, export and update information and file content. Integration framework support both REST and SOAP protocol.
- Batch engine, a job scheduler for actions, programs, scripts etc. It also includes asynchronous PDF generation and surveillance of folders.
Reliability
- Scalability, decoupled architecture to support unlimited horizontal and vertical scaling for your global and local needs.
- Monitoring/Surveillance, administration UI that keeps track of e.g. usage statistics per integration, current processing integration jobs and success/error rates. Maintenance features like Stop/pause integrations and resend/process failed integration jobs are also included.
- Performance, the Integration Framework architecture is designed to have limited footprint on 3DEXPERIENCE app server.
Quick Deployments
- Configuration framework, documented methodology to configure implementation use cases. There is also extension points available to complement configurations.
- Templates and examples give a head start during implementations
- Minimum amount of boiler plate code needed, integration technologies, supported connection to 3DEXPERIENCE and error management included
