i-BAHN
     
 
TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
 
i-BAHN is a systems integration solution that allows you to exchange information electronically between disparate systems to facilitate the automation of business processes.

The functions provided by the solution include:

Transport Adaptation
Data Formatting
Business Logic Provisioning
Transaction Audit Capability
Business Continuity
Alerting Functionality
System and Transaction Management Capability
Security Risk Mitigation

i-BAHN is underpinned by an agentless architecture. True agentless systems do not impose any changes to the managed IT environment and do not create software sociability issues. They also avoid the problems associated with agent life cycles, maintenance overheads and security implications.

i-BAHN’s flexible architecture allows for the inclusion of any new transport and presentation functions and for these to be easily embedded thereby future proofing your investment in i-BAHN.

A crucial difference between i-BAHN and traditional integration solutions is that i-BAHN does not require adaptors to be rolled out to the various end systems; it adapts natively. i-BAHN’s comprehensive business process engine is capable of setting business rule conditions on virtually all business and process states.

Preconditions can be set on queue status, transfer status, file names, data content, rule status and many more, while actions can range from simply firing or inhibiting rules to real-time dynamic updates of all available rule parameters.

i-BAHN’s process engine is ideal for asynchronous transactions and many-to-one and one-to-many business process transaction scenarios commonly found in integrated e-commerce, finance, manufacturing and retail environments.

All data transport and presentation mechanisms are provided with a reliable, secure and detailed auditing facility, which can be accessed through either a console session or a graphical web browser user interface. The GUI is secured over HTTPs and is designed to facilitate ease of configuration and role-based access.

i-BAHN is also able to provide profit/cost centre allocation based on volumes and transactions.
