Informatika Datafeed Extension
FY 2018-19 · 2018-07-15
Summary
An extension of the Informatika system to support clients who don’t have an API but provide direct access to their product catalog via data feed files. These files are uploaded to an FTP to be downloaded and processed. The Firm will need to absorb their data feed files at least once daily (depending on how often the file is updated) to ensure the client’s products are all up to date; mostly the price and stock status. The Firm will need to build an API which would allow the Firm to query the data in these feeds, like how API Clients function, and then aggregate all products to display on the Firm's web site. Datafeeds can have anywhere from 100,000 to millions of rows, one for each product, containing at least 10 different data points like image, title, url, and price.

Description (French)
Une extension du système Informatika pour prendre en charge les clients, qui ne possèdent pas d’API mais fournissent un accès direct à leur catalogue de produits au moyen des fichiers de source de données. Ces fichiers sont téléchargés sur un serveur FTP pour être téléchargés et traités. L'entreprise devra absorber leurs fichiers de source de données au moins une fois par jour (en fonction de la fréquence de mise à jour du fichier) pour s’assurer que les produits du client sont à jour ; principalement le prix et l'état de l'inventaire. L'entreprise devra créer une API permettant à l'entreprise d'interroger les données contenues dans ces sources, comme le fonctionnement de l'API des clients, puis d'agréger tous les produits à afficher sur le site Web de l'entreprise. Les sources de données peuvent avoir entre 100 000 à des millions de rangées, une pour chaque produit, contenant au moins 10 points de données différents, tels que l'image, le titre, l'URL et le prix.
