The Scheduler within Alumio controls when and how frequently integration Routes and the Tasks within them are executed. Routes are processed via the Scheduler that is implemented using cron jobs. This means, you can use the Scheduler within Alumio to request or send data between integrated systems at various intervals ranging from a minute, every five minutes, once per hour, only overnight, or maybe only on the weekend - based on how simple or complex your business requirements are.

A Task is every data entity exchanged between integrated systems via Alumio. This could include integrating data entities like Order, Shipment, Product, etc. Gathering data from a system through a Route is a “New Task” and sending that data to another system is a “Processing Task”. ”Finished Tasks” or “Failed Tasks” are determined based on if the data reaches its destination or no. You can also choose to automate “Skipped” Tasks in order to exclude specific data manually or in bulk.

Alumio’s wide array of Transformers enable data selection and reduction, translation and mapping of formats, encoding, calculations, and sorting/ordering data. They can merge or join data from other sources, perform lookups, aggregate info, and generate surrogate keys. They also allow for transposing or pivoting of array or object keys and values, and include validation functions to ensure data accuracy. Furthermore, Transformers can filter out entire data points from incoming configurations, preventing unnecessary items from clogging the processing queue.

Alumio is primarily a low-code solution that simplifies advanced integrations and data transformations. As part of our vast array of Data Transformers, we’ve released an exciting new developer-friendly Code Transformer. This transformer will enable integrators to write JavaScript within Alumio to transform complex data and tackle edge cases with simple lines of code. The Code Transformer will also enhance workflows and accelerate customizations.

The Logging system of Alumio provides detailed reports of all activities within your integration workflows, ensuring full traceability and transparency. All data and events during the processing of incoming and outgoing data is automatically logged, including data transformations and errors, enabling you to track integrations from start to finish. This simplifies troubleshooting by offering detailed reports on your integrations, helping detect and resolve issues swiftly.

Efficient queue management in Alumio allows you to control the flow of data, ensuring that Tasks are processed in an organized, prioritized, and customized manner. You can set up rules to handle high-priority data first, avoid bottlenecks, and balance workloads. While Alumio enables you to orchestrate synchronous integrations by processing data in real-time, it also allows you to customize and schedule how, when, and where to send and receive data between integrated apps to avoid overloading endpoints.
