In the past, it was common to handle data exchanges solely with file-based, asynchronous interface solutions with which it was impossible to send data on the basis of an event or in real-time.

However, immediate, event-based exchanges of data are much more suitable for many business processes.

When a customer subscribes to an electronic journal for example, they want to receive immediate access to the content they have purchased. With Klopotek Message Based Services, it is easy to implement such scenarios. When the subscription is created, the Klopotek software immediately generates an electronic message on the basis of this event. The message is then sent to the portal instructing it to authorize access for the customer.

With Message Based Services, the Klopotek software can both inform other systems of relevant changes in data and receive data from other systems – all in real-time.

Integrations are easier and more cost-effective because there are no delays.

Integrated business processes across multiple systems become more elegant or are made possible for the first time.

The quality of data improves.
