Mashbridge
Summary
Mashbridge
Implementation Accelerator for Technology
Features
Multi-platform
Mashbridge is built in Java so it’s multi-platform by design (Windows, Mac and Linux/Unix). It runs as an application on top of any web container (Infor Grid and Enterprise Connector are supported).
Any deployment architecture
used in any deployment architecture: on-premise, cloud, hybrid
Business Process oriented
Mashbridge is intended to provide solutions to business process needs; it leverages on InforOS technology platform, extends the technology platform capabilities with Mashbridge APIs, speeds up integrations using pre-build interface templates for the most common business processes (in example ERP-Warehouse and Logistic carriers, ERP-Supplier Portal, ERP-industry4.0, etc.)
Send Messages To Apps API
Send or receive data in Any format to/from Any location via Any protocol you need to.
Realtime or batch
Can be used both real time and batch (e.g., send/receive my messages every 1 hour) .
Ideal for hybrid scenarios
Perfect for implementing Hybrid Cloud scenarios: it acts as an INBOUND/OUTBOUND bridge
Sequencing of messages
Implements Sequencing of messages, can invoke SOAP via REST, can invoke REST via SOAP and Encryption/Signature of messages.
High workload
Ability to deal with high workloads, can be used to feed company Datawarehouse/Datalakes with real time events.
Database API
Just 1 API to access multi-database: connection via JDBC driver to Oracle, MS SQL, Azure MS SQL, MySQL, DB2, DB2400, Excel files, Datalakes. Available SQL operations: Read/Write/Update/Delete statements and Execute Stored Procedures
Outputs into XML or JSON
Converts SQL outputs into XML or JSON for easy processing.
No stored procedures
Eliminates the need to write and (especially) maintain stored procedures.
Support for single sign on
Support for single sign on
Sensors Data Management API
Ability to easily connect to machine sensors.
Reads and writes back data coming from Sensors, PLC, CLC, MES using OPC, OPCUA, MODBUS and other proprietary protocols (e.g., Siemens S7 Scada) or online/cloud services (e.g., IoT platforms like Azure, AWS, Google, Cisco, IBM, Salesforce) .
Events grouping
Manages complex grouping of events (sensors historical data)
IoT and Datalake
Can be used to send data to IoT platforms/data hubs or to send instructions to machines.
Highly configurable and natively integrated with SendMessagesToApps API for full integration with any application/db/datalake
Group Ascii and XML Messages/Files API
Easily combine multiple messages/files into one.
Supports multiple different file formats
Supports multiple different file formats.
Converts multiple Ascii files into XML
Converts multiple Ascii files into XML
Combine/synchronize flows
Very powerful solution to combine/synchronize integration flows.
Execute Business Rules Recursively API
Allows to execute an action in a loop for all the specified object (e.g., we have a Purchase Order object, and we need to retrieve the last price for each item specified in lines by invoking an external application/API
Parameters from the input objects
API Parameters can be constant values or calculated values from the input object.
Email Connector API
Sends / Receives Emails with Attachments
Actions via email
Sends emails with action buttons, e.g., to execute a task. No need to open and login into the application to perform the task
Retrieves emails and their attachments
Retrieves emails and their attachments – e.g., incoming orders from multiple accounts.

ODBC Driver API Wrapper
An ODBC driver that interfaces with any API under the hood enables seamless connectivity for a variety of applications, such as labeling or reporting software like Bartender or Excel. When you connect to our driver from these applications, it executes an API call to connect to your Infor Datalake via JDBC and perform queries.
You can pass custom SQL queries to the driver, which then relays them to the API. The API executes the queries against the Datalake and returns the results to the ODBC driver, which subsequently returns them to your reporting or labeling software. This process creates a bridge between ODBC and JDBC communication, overcoming the limitation of many applications that do not natively support JDBC. While label and reporting software are common use cases, this driver can be utilized in various other scenarios as well.
Invoice Dashboard
Introducing a dashboard that displays related invoice fields before you submit them to your tax authorities. This dashboard allows you to monitor the status of your invoices after submission. If the status is not satisfactory, you can easily edit the invoice directly from the dashboard and resubmit it to your tax authorities. This feature ensures that you have full control and oversight of your invoice submissions, providing a seamless and efficient process.
