In reading the info on the site, it looks like Ebay uses BMC products to run it's auction site? Is that true, and if so, what does it use?

Message queue syatems handle most of these issues about as gracefully as anything. I've looked at xmlgateway for that reason in the past. You also need to make sure that the midtier's web service implementation is capable of handling the xml documents sent to the midtier. Xmlgateway can address shortcomings in this area as well.

In addition -- RARELY do fields map 1 to 1 very nicely -- and they will change overtime anyway - so an intermediate strategy would be better... Now -- the best option (IMHO) -- use Kinetic Task -- it is the intermediate strategy - but is done in a configuration approach -- avoiding additional customization in your ARS... In addition - Kinetic Task is just as comfortable with REST APIs as Web Services... this may become important to you as you interact with ServiceNow (or any of the modern SAAS solutions). -John On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 10:53 AM, Sean O'Sullivan <sean.osulli...@prudential.com<mailto:sean.osulli...@prudential.com>> wrote: Hello Everyone, We're integrating our home grown Problem Management/Helpdesk application with an external Helpdesk application (Service Now), We're planning to use Web Services for the first time with our Remedy app. My question is around how folks are using Web Services. For creating new tickets in Remedy, Is it better to create a web service directly against the helpdesk schema, or is it better to create an intermediate schema where the data gets dropped off and then use workflow to validate and move it over to the main schema? It seems that having an intermediate schema is safer...but the downside is we might not get a ticket number back immediately. I'm sure others have set up integrations with web services. So I thought I would ask how others have done this and what challenges have you faced? What does your integration look like? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
