INTEGRATION
MADE EASY
We make integration easy
Applications like Maximo rarely exist in isolation from other enterprise systems. In addition, mobile, social and cloud-based software applications
have infiltrated the enterprise market and exist side-by-side with on-premises systems. Ensuring effective and transparent integration between
all these applications and systems can significantly improve efficiency and create new opportunities for most businesses.
Axon is an integration orchestrator, allowing the creation, modification and management of referential and transactional data integration
workflows between Maximo and multiple other applications and systems, whether real-time, scheduled or manually triggered. Using pre-built
or customised connectors, Axon is network transport agnostic, utilising web services, database queries and lower-level communication protocols
such as TCP/IP or UDP, between any application or system whether on-premises or on the cloud.
Axon provides an easy to use interface where connectors are registered and managed, and where transactions are fully audited and monitored.
Alerting features allow users and administrators to be informed of exceptions or when human intervention is required. Furthermore, Axon LIVE
provides real-time live monitoring of data streams, similar to those originating from SCADA systems, and is able to trigger alerts and data update
actions based on events captured from those data streams.
Simplifying middleware
With Axon you get an integration platform which understands Maximo and your other systems straight off. You can quickly integrate your
software and systems at a fraction of the price of big, complex middleware. Business processes are consolidated and span the organisation
regardless of the nature or location of the specific systems. Data is consistent giving users a single version of the truth. Management gains
confidence in their systems by having one integrated system that includes mobile, social, cloud-based and all the enterprise applications that
your users are accustomed to.
World-class technology
Axon is designed to use the world-leading Mulesoft Enterprise Service Bus technology. Mulesoft has recently been positioned by Gartner as a
Leader in the Magic Quadrant for On-Premises Application Integration Suites and Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS).
Technology that works for business
Fit for purpose
Axon solves typical integration issues between on-premises and
cloud-based, specialised and enterprise applications and systems,
whilst opening the possibility to embrace the new opportunities
offered by mobile and social applications.
Connectors
Integration of structured data and unstructured documents relating
to business processes is provided by using standard connectors
between Maximo and other systems, such as EMC Documentum,
INFOR SunSystems, Microsoft Sharepoint, Workday and Kofax.
Connectors can be created for practically any system in use today.
Configurable
With minimal technical knowledge, users can plug in connectors and
configure Axon to communicate with other systems. Integration
instances, data flows, event monitoring and actions can be configured.
Easy integration
Since all the flow of information and data mapping is configured,
Axon allows for a quicker implementation. Custom integration is
normally a complex job requiring knowledge of specific interfacing
APIs, custom coding and customisations. Axon hides the complexities
of the underlying APIs and reduces integration to XML message
formatting. This helps the user to focus on the business content
passed across systems and less on the transport mechanisms handled
by Axon.
connections and messages can be handled automatically by Axon
without having to revert to developing multi-threaded
programming from scratch.
Synchronise master data
Axon eliminates the risk of having fragmented and outdated
information by ensuring that systems are constantly synchronised
with one another. The system allows you to configure validation
rules so that business users can update information and create one
single source of truth.
Audit trail
Live monitoring, audit trails, alerts and error-logs guarantee full
traceability of events. Axon has a report generator and an
administrator web console that represents important information
graphically with search and drill-down facilities.
Every message, event, data transformation and transaction flow that
passes through Axon is automatically logged and available for
monitoring and reporting. Quality of Service (Qos) on integration
points can be monitored, and Axon LIVE provides real-time
information on data streams.
Automate business processes
Bridge gaps in business processes and automate workflows that
require information from various systems. Alerts and information
can be sent to connected systems, individuals or groups of people,
either manually, on schedule or in real-time.
Integration hub
Transaction management and data integrity
Additional systems can be integrated into Axon at any stage,
benefiting from robust transaction management across multiple
solutions. Axon is a very light footprint application which provides a
multi-threaded environment out-of-the-box. This means that multiple
Transaction Management ensures that data integrity is maintained
across all connected systems. Axon also provides an easy mechanism
that permits users to define the necessary actions to be taken when
an inconsistency is identified or a transaction fails.
Updated user interface
Monitor activity through statistics, dashboards and summaries.
Change settings of configured integrations (e.g. scheduling
and polling, external system connection settings, success or
failure actions).
