A method and apparatus for performing event-driven data transfer operations
over a global computer network. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) format
data is extracted from a database stored on a first computer system
connected to a global computer network. The transaction data extracted
from the database is then monitored to determine whether the data is ready
to be transmitted to a second computer system connected to the global
computer network. When ready, the transaction data is transmitted to the
second computer system. The second computer system, in turn, receives the
transaction data, monitors the data to determine whether the data is ready
to be merged into a database stored on the second computer system, and
merges the data into the database. Embodiments of the invention allow for
secure data transfer operations to be performed on-line and in real-time.
In addition, since a global computer network is utilized, there is no need
to maintain a dedicated communication line between the first and the
second computer system. Rather, a single network connection can be used by
the first and the second computer system to communicate with any number of
computer systems connected to the global computer network.
_ uno método y aparato para performing event-driven dato transferir operación sobre uno global computadora red. _ electrónico dato intercambio (EDI) formato dato ser extracted uno base de datos stored en uno primero computadora sistema conectar uno global computadora red. _ transacción dato extracted base de datos ser entonces monitored determinar si dato ser listo ser transmitted uno segundo computadora sistema conectar global computadora red. _ cuando listo, transacción dato ser transmitted segundo computadora sistema. _ segundo computadora sistema, alternadamente, recibir transacción dato, monitor dato determinar si dato ser listo ser combinar en uno base de datos stored en segundo computadora sistema, y combinar dato en base de datos. _ encarnación invención permitir para seguro dato transferir operación ser realizar en línea y en en tiempo real. _ además, puesto que uno global computadora red ser utilizar, allí ser ninguno necesitar mantener uno dedicado comunicación línea entre primero y segundo computadora sistema. _ algo, uno solo red conexión poder ser used por primero y segundo computadora sistema comunicar con cualquier número computadora sistema conectar global computadora red. _
