API

The EKR API allows to access in read, in search or in writing and in server to server or client to server mode to any object present in the KB

All the information present in the EKR Orchestra platform is accessible, in reading and writing, through the powerful Application Program Interfaces. The EKR API allows access, in server to server or client to server mode, both in reading, in search, and in writing, to any object inside the Knowledge Base: to the world of translations or to the high-performance search functions of elasticsearch. 

The completeness and extension of the EKR API allow easy integration of any system to integrate the information already present or to access the information already organized, based on the established EKR logic. 

All EKR applications access the Knowledge Base through the API therefore they are stateless applications because they access only through the EKR web service structure.

Altova

Tools such as XML SPY by Altova allow you to map information architecture and put order thanks to the integration with the EKR platform

In each EKR Orchestra project, we use Altova tools to formalize information architectures and to allow users to map, describe, maintain and evolve the information architecture map over the years even without the presence of consultants.

EKR uses Altova tools and provides certified training.

Amazon

Use our connector to send your product information to the Amazon platform and therefore do not delay your presence in this marketplace

The presence in the Amazon marketplaces is an opportunity that the manufacturing companies must not miss.

Being present in the marketplaces means ensuring that the product is visible at the highest quality and is not described by distributors or resellers who have little interest in making the product perceive with its best features but only enter some limited information and images , with the risk that the end customer chooses the competitor’s product.

To prevent this from happening, EKR has developed a very complex connector, for the presence on the seller center, in seller mode, and, possibly, also for the supply of information in vendor mode. 

EKR accompanies customers not only in the integration of the two systems but also in all the qualification and organization of the product structure within the marketplace.

With EKR Orchestra, producers have the possibility to send their info to the Amazon platform, in the most complete way possible, also exploiting the potential of the A + pages.
