XML Automate upload/doanload ??

[nrastogi]

Hi guys,

I would appreciate if you could answer my questions as I have to send the feedback to management soon.

We are in the process of reviewing a system that would store our orders and manipulate them in their system as we send data to them. This could be a text file.

But, Now we are thinking about using XML and the vendor already has XML part in place (but in two steps).

One is "Download XML Orders" and other is "Upload XML Order". So, we need to download the orders in XML format and the make changes in XML file as we made in our system and then upload it again in XML format using their system.

Now this issue is that we are maintaing orders in "our" system and we have to make extra steps and efforts to reflect the data into their system

Basically we want to automate the XML uploading to their ("vendor's) system as the changes occur in our system. We don't want to download the XML data and make changes and upload again.

I guess I have explained a lot in detail about the needs.

Please pass on some views and suggestions !! Any help is appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Well downloading and uploading xml can vary in the way you do it depending on what platform you are using, what software tools you have available to you, etc etc.


So, the next question is, what technology are you looking to use to fulfil this solution?
