Integrations - Concept
Integration pattern
A reusable way of connecting systems for a particular kind of interaction
What's it for?
Gives teams a reusable way to solve a common problem when connecting systems.
For example…
A request-response API is one integration pattern for immediate answers; publishing an event is another when several systems need to react independently.
A nightly file transfer is chosen as the integration pattern for a supplier that cannot support real-time APIs
