API integration
Connect systems through documented interfaces and explicit data contracts.
Connect applications and data
Design reliable interfaces between applications, data sources, devices and operational teams—based on the events and responsibilities that need to cross each boundary.
RELIABLE INFORMATION FLOW
Integration is not simply moving data. It requires clear ownership, contracts, timing, failure behavior, observability and a shared understanding of the business event.
Connect systems through documented interfaces and explicit data contracts.
Plan direction, timing, authority and reconciliation for shared information.
Move meaningful operational events between systems with observable handling.
Provide technical visibility into health, failures and defined recovery actions.
Integration lifecycle
A dependable interface includes normal flow, degraded conditions, retries, reconciliation and operational support.
Identify source, consumer, authority, timing and business meaning.
Test expected flow, invalid inputs, timeouts and recovery scenarios.
Define monitoring, alerting, troubleshooting and ownership after release.
Clarify the interface
Include the business event, current limitation and any available interface documentation.
