API Module PDF Print E-mail

Kapow SolutionThe API Module extends the Kapow Web Data Server to provide programmatic runtime interaction with robots in real-time. The API Module includes both libraries for Java and C# (.NET) for easy access to robots from any Java or .NET compatible product and application.

The API Module also includes a C# (.NET) and Java code generation wizard for even easier creation of tailored functional interfaces for direct object level interaction with native applications, both for synchronous and asynchronous data retrieval.

no codingThe wizard also allows for easy deployment of SOAP or REST services both in a J2EE or IIS environment for easy consumption by Web Service Orchestration products like Microsoft BizTalk, or any other system that can consume standard SOAP and REST services.

Service Enable Web Based Applications and Logic

Key Product Features

  • REST
  • SOAP

Key Product Benefits

  • Leverage legacy assets for new agile business applications e.g. Enterprise mashups
  • SOA/ WOA standards compliance
  • Execute robots in real-time and consume resulting XML using SOAP or REST standards

Pass Web Application Components as Input Objects

Key Product Features

  • Full type support e.g. Strings, integers, dates
  • Personalized account access
  • Dynamic Access control to secure websites and applications

Kapow robots are highly versatile and easily configurable to any website or application. They can be executed from Java or C# (.NET) programs and receive unlimited input parameters with varying data types (e.g. strings, integers, dates, etc.). For example, when provided login/password and specific date ranges as input parameters, a robot can login to a secure banking web application to return personalized billing information over that specified time-period.

Key Product Benefits

  • Secure login through multiple accounts
  • Transformation of production web applications into real-time services or feeds e.g. mobile enablement

Execute Kapow Robots Synchronously or Asynchronously

Key Product Features

  • High Speed socket based server communication with load balancing algorithms built into the Kapow APIs
  • JMS Support for Load Balancing Process Execution
  • Secure server communication via SSL
  • Built-in Scalability

Execute Kapow robots in real time as function calls synchronously or asynchronously in single or multi-threaded applications. Kapow’s APIs have pre-written load-balancing algorithms that make it easy to write interfaces that easily scale across multiple physical and virtual processors and servers. Robots can be executed using sockets (including SSL-based socket connections) or Java Message Service (JMS).

Key Product Benefits

  • Unmatched scalability and flexibility in execution of robots
  • Easy to deploy on physical or virtual server farms with automatic load balancing
