The Proxy capability provides an alternative approach for adapters integrating with Ownera FinP2P Routers. While the standard Adapter Specification defines a REST API to be implemented by adapters for interacting with the Router, the Proxy capability enables systems to operate in an event-driven manner. This simplifies integration for systems that prefer or require event-based workflows.
Overview
With the Proxy capability systems integrating with the FinP2P Router receive actions as events via the Proxy mechanism. These systems then:
Receive Events: Actions to be performed are delivered as events.
Perform Actions: Systems process the received events and carry out the required actions.
Acknowledge Completion: Systems send acknowledgments back to the Router once the actions are completed.
This approach is particularly suitable for environments where event-driven architectures or message queues are already in use, or where REST APIs are not optimal due to system constraints.
