集成工具应用
Hardcat认识到，一个完整的解决方案往往是由许多不同的系统组成的，无论多复杂的系统，我们致力于确保用户体验完美无缺。
因此Hardcat所包含的协同工作能力，是通过一组功能强大的工具和技术来实现。
在系统外运行的Hardcat为用户提供了强大的导入和导出功能。导入/导出功能可被提前进行安排，以满足数据同步的要求。
对于实时活动中，Hardcat专业服务团队可以定制的界面，以满足组织的严格要求。该团队将与客户和他们的（潜在的）许多产品的合作伙伴来回答下列问题...
什么样的系统需要讨论？
为什么？
谁将会进行整合？
什么样的技术可用来“说话”到其他的系统？
需要什么样的数据转换采取系统之间的地方吗？
在进入哪些信息？什么样的信息去了呢？
对于在较封闭的系统里复杂的集成运行，Hardcat可以通过一个信息进行代理—一组各类储存在系统中的可被共享的表或者文件—因此，能确保仅是所需要的信息能被共享及最合适的集成商和供应商才可以享用这些数据。
Hardcat可以把从ERP到小的，定制的计费系统，甚至硬件的自动发现工具整合成最大的或最小的一组整合包。
GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR CURRENT ENVIRONMENT
Hardcat recognises that an entire solution is often comprised of lots of different systems and we are dedicated to ensuring that the user experience is seamless, regardless of the systems involved.
Hardcat therefore embraces system interoperability which we achieve by a suite of powerful tools and techniques.
Out of the box, Hardcat provides users with a powerful import and export capability. Imports/exports can be scheduled to meet data synchronisation requirements.
For real-time activities, the Hardcat Professional Services Team can tailor an interface to meet an organisation’s exacting requirements. The team will work closely with a customer and their (potentially) many product partners to answer the following questions…
What systems need to ‘talk’?
Why?
Who will be performing the integration?
What technologies are available to ‘talk’ to the other systems?
What data transformation needs to take place between systems?
What information goes in? What information goes out?
For complex integration exercises with fairly closed systems, Hardcat can engage via an Information Broker – a set of tables or files which reside between systems and are shared by various parties – thus ensuring that only the required information is shared and the most appropriate integrators and vendors are consuming data.
Hardcat has experience integrating to the largest and smallest packages, from ERPs to small, bespoke accounting systems and even hardware auto-discovery tools.
HARDCAT API FUNCTIONS
System integrators can use the Hardcat API function to build interfaces that communicate with Hardcat and allow users to perform Hardcat tasks from within other 3rd party systems.
The largest benefit for organisations to use API’s is the significant decrease in internal costs by eliminating the need for their employees to re-enter data that is already captured by an application, site or service.
The Hardcat API’s allows users to perform the following Hardcat functions from other systems:
Create/delete assets
Edit asset details such as location, person, cost centre and supplier
Update asset GPS coordinates
And much more….
