Customer feedback
It was important for us to find a partner who has a high level of technological know-how and has initial experience in the fashion sector. In addition, we are enthusiastic about the integration approach and thus create a high level of flexibility for the future.
The challenge
Building a modern and agile integration architecture
As part of the restructuring and modernization of internal IT – driven by a cloud project in e-commerce – our customer planned to set up a modern and agile integration architecture in order to flexibly and future-proof the data exchange between the core applications and the company’s external partners. design.
We received initial information from Willy Bogner for this. For the e-commerce project, frontend and backend applications, logisticians and ERP systems should be integrated through a wide variety of interfaces. This was the connection of on-prem systems to cloud solutions, cloud-to-cloud and EDI. Internally, the “Lobster _Data” is used as an EDI, EAI and data hub, but our customer still lacked a corresponding hybrid integration architecture.
When designing the integration strategy, special attention was paid to the controllability of the technology by Willy Bogner’s employees in order to be able to act independently of an external integration service provider in the further course of the project.
The solution
Hybrid, message-based integration solution / middleware
Based on customer requirements, we have developed a solution to build a modern hybrid, message-based integration solution/middleware. This includes the use of Microsoft Azure standard technologies for on-prem and cloud-based integration scenarios and is enriched by our integration framework Data Passion Smart Connect.
We rely on an understandable, lightweight and scalable Azure ESB architecture. This allows us to quickly integrate the customer’s employees into the project on the basis of the existing .NET know-how.
