Deep Dive: Kentico & Dynamics GP Integration Architecture

Our integration solution leverages a modern iPaaS to create a robust, scalable, and secure bridge between Kentico's rich eCommerce capabilities and Dynamics GP's powerful ERP functionalities. It's designed for maximum efficiency, real-time data flow, and minimal impact on both systems.

Data Flow Steps

Connectivity & Authentication: Establish secure API connections using Kentico's OAuth 2.0 or API keys and Dynamics GP's Web Services (Windows Authentication / Service Accounts). Credentials are securely managed in the iPaaS vault.

Event-Driven Triggers: Utilize Kentico webhooks for immediate notification of critical events (e.g., new order, customer update, inventory change). For Dynamics GP, the iPaaS can poll for changes or leverage database triggers where applicable.

Data Extraction: Extract relevant data from the source system via its respective APIs, ensuring only necessary fields are retrieved to optimize performance.

Data Transformation & Harmonization: The iPaaS's visual mapping canvas and AI-assisted tools transform and standardize data to fit the target system's schema, handling data type conversions, concatenations, and custom logic.

Business Logic & Validation: Apply custom business rules (e.g., order routing, pricing adjustments) and validate data against predefined rules to ensure data quality and integrity before processing.

Data Ingestion: Ingest the transformed data into the target system using its optimized APIs (e.g., Dynamics GP's eConnect or Web Services, Kentico's /rest endpoints). Batching is used for high-volume, non-real-time operations.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement robust error handling with retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and automated alerts. Monitor all integration flows through a centralized dashboard for real-time insights and proactive issue resolution.
