i-connect
A Library of Publishing-Specific Web Services
There is no doubt that web services represent a significant step-change in the software and computing world. Web services offer businesses a systems solution that is easier, cheaper and quicker to deploy and maintain. i-connect, VISTA’s library of publishing-specific web services, delivers revolutionary benefits in the areas of integration and information exchange.
i-connect web services integrate new functionality within existing VISTA applications and provides the necessary platform for simpler integration with third party applications. Web services allow publishing organizations to share accurate and timely information from their systems—and gain information from other systems—easily and at a much lower cost.
i-connect consists of the web services that underpin VISTA’s core applications, delivered in bundles to provide logical sets of functionality. Once in place at a customer site, a web service may be used and re-purposed any number of times.
