Open standardized interfaces to business application data
Papyrus Adapters interface with WebRepository and fully support SOA Architecture. Adapters provide flexible integration between applications without the need for interface programming. The Papyrus Document System offers different Adapters such as HTTP, Messaging/MQ Series, SOAP, SAP XOM, COM, XML, LDAP and many more. Adapters allow for the quick handling of changes whilst respecting cost and quality. If a programmer has hard-coded the invocation of a service between two systems, then that results in connectivity- but not agility. The service invocation can’t be changed nor can additional services be added before or after it, without creating a programming project. There is the general agreement that any modifications to process flows that can be accomplished using a graphical or scripting tool are quicker, safer, and less costly than those accomplished by traditional programming.
