Auditing Record ETL historical data for auditing and potential data correction needs. Show More ##### ## Development (7) Real-Time Integration Supports event or transaction based integrations that react to changes in real-time API Designer Provides a web-based interface for designing, documenting, and testing APIs. Flow Designer Allows for integration development through the visual development of integration logic flows with the help od a drag and drop user interface. Pre-Built Connectors Facilitiates API development and integrations with prebuilt connectors, templates, and examples. Custom Connectors Provides the ability to create connectors from existing services and APIs in catalog. Reusable connectors Provides prebuilt, reusable connectors and workflows for all user integration requirements. Multi - tenant architecture Enables multiple tenants (customers) to securely share physical computing resources. Show More ##### ## Management (5) Monitoring & Notification Console for monitoring resource utilization, system health, ability to start and stop processes, etc. Routing And Orchestration Enables data routing on configuration basis and management of complex workflows through an orchestration engine. Data Mapping Facilitates to and fro data map according to the data model between applications/web services. Data Transformation Provides standard tools and functions to convert data values from the data format of a source system into the data format of a destination system. API Management Supports and oversees the management of API products across their full lifecycle Show More ##### ## Security (3) Data Encryption Employs data encryption both at rest and in transit. Security Standards Comply to key industry standards like SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA etc to protect and safeguard data. Communication Protocol Supports secure communication protocols like FTPS, SFTP etc Show More ##### ## Integration Options (4) Data Virtualization Integrates data from disparate sources, without physical data movement Managed File Transfers Provides one or more methods to securely transfer data from one location to another through a network Big Data Processing Provides integration to BigData sources such as Hadoop and other NoSQL sources (MongoDB, Cassandra and HBase) EDI Provides Integrations to EDI service providers.
