Data Integration Strategies
MobileSmith provides flexible mobile app data integration strategies so you can
reliably publish your data as app content without impacting performance.
Types of Data integration:
Direct XML Integration – ideal for frequently updated data.
• Set up directly between your backend system server and the mobile devices,
bypassing the MobileSmith server. MobileSmith provides a simple set of
instructions to help you deliver your data in the XML format the apps require.
API-based integration:
• MobileSmith can provide secure and reliable SOAP/REST connectors to your
web-based or legacy systems. Our modular adapters will use your existing APIs
to quickly access and translate your data into the XML format used by our
platform. You can configure the MobileSmith CMS to automatically refresh your
data at various intervals.
