Summary
eThor's current product offers pay at table software for the restaurant industry. We retrieve and display receipts on a credit card payment terminal and provide a user interface to process credit card transactions. Recently, customers are demanding the ability to also use the same payment device to create and insert orders into the point of sale system.
This provides a variety of different technical challenges, especially across multiple different point of sale systems which have different data models. We are also going to have to take the technology we've built for legacy POS systems which gets deployed on-premise and re-invent the process entirely in the cloud with new technology.

Description (French)
Le produit actuel d'eThor offre un logiciel de paiement à la table pour l'industrie de la restauration. Nous récupérons et affichons les reçus sur un terminal de paiement par carte de crédit et fournissons une interface utilisateur pour traiter les transactions par carte de crédit. Depuis peu, les clients demandent à pouvoir utiliser le même dispositif de paiement pour créer et insérer des commandes dans le système du point de vente. Cela pose une série de défis techniques différents, en particulier entre plusieurs systèmes de points de vente différents qui ont des modèles de données différents. Nous allons également devoir prendre la technologie que nous avons construite pour les anciens systèmes de point de vente, qui sont déployés sur site, et réinventer entièrement le processus dans le nuage avec une nouvelle technologie.
