Information Systems & Software Development and Microservices

Data processing

If different types of documents are processed differently, a processing algorithm can be added and even a simple BPMS can be used.

Data enrichment

Before data is passed to another system, it can be enriched with other data, such as adding a delivery address to a delivery document.

Error correction

As well as processing data, a microservice can correct an error and resend a document.

Background data processing

A separate module can initiate scheduled or event-driven processing by issuing commands to other systems or services. Control the receipt and acknowledgement of documents by external systems.

Point automation of business processes

Automation of any separate process taking into account individual characteristics/requirements. Implementation of individual logic in the process.

Simple processes with acknowledgement

For example, a simple interface for a mobile application allows for quick approval of an order or remote request. It is also possible to design an interface for a specific role to make quick decisions and check document status. Including fast, point-to-point automation of discrete processes with microservices without modifying legacy systems.

Complex algorithms using data from ERP systems.

Microservices enable rapid development of a module that sits next to your ERP (or in the cloud) and, based on rules, calculates delivery schedules, forecasts demand, plans warehouse stocking schedules and production line loads. The calculated result can then be sent to the production system, for example, or a 3PL delivery order can be generated.

Microservices can also automate the confirmation of actions and documents by other users, such as warehouse workers, quality control personnel, supervisors and sales representatives. In addition, mobile workstations can be created, such as client applications for use by employees in the warehouse, receiving area, on the sales floor or at customer sites.
