Backend integration
In order to further facilitate the integration between a public administration’s IT systems and an Access Point, a Connector can be put in place.
An eDelivery Connector may also be used to facilitate the integration between backend systems and Access Points.
The next diagram shows the same exchange scenario with the eDelivery Connector. The connector offers capabilities like linking up to legacy systems, advanced monitoring and evidences.
Backend integration, what are the benefits
Interoperability
You can exchange documents and/ or data using a standardised messaging protocols other than e-mail.
You can exchange attachments in addition to messages (XML documents)
The information about the participants (what messages they can process, the message protocol that they support, …) is easily discoverable and accessible to you and to everyone else in the data exchange networkYou can execute asynchronous request-response interactions
Security
You are certain that documents are encrypted during transmission (confidentiality)
You are certain that the origin and the destination of the data and documents are trustworthy
You have access to advanced and configurable logging of events related to the exchange of data and documents
Scalability and Performance
You can exchange documents and data files larger than 50 Mb
Your back-office has different ways to connect to the message exchange network
You are certain you have access to advanced and configurable monitoring of the system
Legal Assurance & Accountability
You are certain that messages are delivered even if sent to temporarily unavailable channels (store and forwardYou receive evidences, possibly with legally recognised evidential value, of the several steps of the exchange of documents and data
You are certain of the non-repudiation of receipt and/or origin of every exchange through signature
You are certain of time synchronization in the message exchange process
