Storage Integration for Third Party ECM Systems uses the OnBase Event Relay Server (ERS), a .NET-based Windows Service, to relay internal OnBase document event information to third-party ECM systems.

The ERS is a pluggable framework capable of loading interfaces via assemblies for the purpose of communicating OnBase events to target listeners. These listeners can be another ECM solution or other third-party integrations that can receive data via standard transfer protocols (e.g., http, ftp, net.tcp, msmq, etc.).

Storage Integration for Third Party ECM Systems communicates using SOAP with secure or basic HTTP bindings and can relay not only event metadata to the target listener, but also allow the listener to request document page data from OnBase. Both the OnBase ERS and the third-party ECM system must be configured to allow this communication.

The ERS polls the configured OnBase data source for document event data and sends event notifications to the configured URLs of third-party ECM listeners. The ERS configuration file allows administrators to specify database connection information for the service, and to fine tune the performance of the Event Relay Server, such as the polling interval at which the service queries the database and sends notifications.
