  12. What is COMMANDedx?

  13. What is COMMANDedx? Our new integration platform will standardize the method of transporting data across Command Alkon and 3rd party products. COMMANDedx Enterprise Data eXchange Allow systems with disparate platforms and data structures to exchange information in a uniform fashion Integrate via standard XML entities Message bus based on ISA-95 and OAGIS models CS08 V2 Roadmap & Forum (MGT-008, Management Track)

  14. Integration Standards Open Standards Oagis V9.5 (www.oagi.org) The Open Applications Group is not-for-profit standards development organization (SDO). Our community is focused on building process-based business standards for eCommerce, Cloud Computing, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Web Services, and Enterprise Integration. Our Open Applications Group Integration Specification (OAGIS) standard is the only truly cross industry business standard in the world ISA-95 B2MML (www.isa-95.com) ISA-95 is the international standard for the integration of enterprise and control systems. ISA-95 consists of models and terminology. These can be used to determine which information, has to be exchanged between systems for sales, finance and logistics and systems for production, maintenance and quality. CS08 V2 Roadmap & Forum (MGT-008, Management Track)

  15. What is COMMANDedx? Why COMMANDedx Instead of building non re-useable point to point solutions, build reusable interfaces to generic industry business object. Like this each application will have to build the interface once independent of the application providing or consuming the data Standardizing the method of transporting data will decrease development and maintenance cost Customizing can be easily accomplished with graphical tools without additional development EDX Highlights Data Integration: Ensuring that information in multiple systems is kept consistent Process Integration: Linking business processes across applications Common Facade: Front-end for all CAI applications, providing a single consistent access interface to these applications and shielding users from having to learn to interact with different applications CS08 V2 Roadmap & Forum (MGT-008, Management Track)

  16. What is COMMANDedx? COMMANDedx Technical Features Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Approach Publish/Subscribe: Synchronize data between different systems Push/Pull: Process integration between different systems XML files/streams as a means of communication with internal and external applications Asynchronous and Synchronous communication Support real-time and batch modes Perform data transformation (XSLT), filtering (XPATH) and routing Support multiple data transport mechanisms (Soap/HTTP/WCF/File) Strong technical and security design - .NET WCF, SSL Certificates CS08 V2 Roadmap & Forum (MGT-008, Management Track)
