SeeUnity's Echo product enhancement supports events-driven synchronisation via webhooks

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 29 -- SeeUnity - An Anaqua Company, the leading provider of Application Programming Interface (API)-based content integration and migration solutions for on-premise and cloud-based Enterprise Content Management applications, has announced the release of a significant Echo Content Synchronization (Echo) product enhancement supporting events-driven synchronisation via webhooks.

This capability is less resource intensive and expedites the notification of content and metadata changes from cloud-based systems to another application, delivering real-time data updates to users.

Echo, a robust content synchronisation engine enabling organisations to securely connect and sync data between a document management system and other external applications via API, can sync content and content changes in one direction or bi-directionally on an ongoing and scheduled basis, allowing users to collaborate and access up-to-date content anywhere.

Using webhooks provides an alternative method for syncing data between applications. Webhooks deliver data over the web as changes (events) happen, versus relying on numerous API call requests for changes.

API rate limits are often found with cloud-based systems, causing delays and bottlenecks. For customers that require frequent, numerous, and timely data updates, this means they’ll receive the information much faster and more efficiently utilising webhooks.

“A full Echo API scan is still run periodically to catch events that may have been missed for normally occurring situations, such as internet glitches, downed systems, or database errors,” said SeeUnity CTO, Dan Hunsinger.

“The combination of webhooks, with the full scan safety net, creates a solid, efficient, and reliable integration,” he said in a statement.
