Middleware for unified API integration
As a leading logistics and postal services provider, Austrian Post faced difficulties with different API integrations in the nine countries they’re operating in. During our extensive development consulting process, we created a comprehensive software requirements specification document that served as the foundation for their Connexo Middleware API system.
The initial task was to find a way to help our client overcome the challenges of integrating subsidiaries. During the discovery phase, we realized that simply unifying APIs isn’t the best solution, so we proposed to build a converter that would be able to integrate all services within a single interface.
We created the specification for a project that will ultimately ease the integration process and allow seamless parcel management, exceeding our client's expectations.
FEATURES DEVELOPED
Functional solution design and requirements documentation
We defined the project scope and produced a comprehensive document suitable for effort estimating, development planning, solution design and an RFP/tender process.
GAP analysis of existing API systems
Insights gained from existing integration documentation and interviews with individual tech experts were all used for a GAP analysis of the subsidiaries’ diverse API systems.
High-level architecture design and documentation
We designed and documented the optimal technical solution and its architecture, then validated its feasibility using an industry-standard tech stack.
