Design and Test System Integrations like a Guru. 🤫
With years of experience and observations, I have noticed that almost all system integration implementations follow a common mechanism. With this guide, next time, you can design and test your system integration like a guru.
When the systems are integrated, there are few things to pay attention when designing and testing the integration.
- The communication between the systems
- Retry mechanisms
- Notifications
The communication between the systems
This is the baseline and the bridge between the application for the success of the integrations, sharing of data and validations. We can use different mechanisms to communicate between systems like service call, remote procedure calls and so on. The commonly used communication mechanism is HTTP Rest.
With integration what possibly happens is failing to communicate. Why?
It could be due to the unavailability of subsequent system or failure in authentication and authorization or an internal issue in the application and the list continues. Due to these, it is vital to implement a retry mechanisms.
