Architecture for interfacing multiple applications
- by Erwin
Let's say you have a Master Database and a few External/Internal applications that use WebServices to interface data.
What would be your preferred architecture to interface data from and to those applications? Would you put some sort of Enterprise Service Bus in between? Like BizTalk? Or something cheaper?
We don't want to block applications while they are interfacing, but we do want to use return codes from the interfaces to determine if we need to take some actions in the originating application or not.
