Streamlined API Layer Management
Reduce complexity, redundancy, costs, and maintenance workload.
Without Universal API
- Rules coupled with DM layer results in frequent changes and customizations per DM
- Time and resource intensive custom education, team, and build for each distributor integration
- Heavy workload of managing multiple code bases, data translation, and ETL
- Manual bespoke intervention required for maintenance and updates due to logic living in DM layer
- Extensive code base requires constant maintenance, detracting from other core business needs
With Universal API
- Decouple mapping/rules/logic away from UI to allow for reusable processes
- A user-friendly portal for IT teams to manage API calls, workflows and partnerships efficiently
- Eliminate need for bespoke integrations, to allow for seamless backend or Ul integrations
