Identity & Access Management (WSO2 Identity Server) and API Management (WSO2 API Manager) are now running on the Connext Platform. The Connext Platform solution combines both the hosting of the configuration and the management in one single service for the NVM.
During the start-up phase and the first period after go live, Yenlo delivered ‘Integration-as-a-service’, which combines the platform and the required artefacts (such as APIs, services and configurations). This phase has been successfully completed, Yenlo now provides its Connext-services as a ‘Platform-as- a-Service’, and brainbay has taken over the management
of artefacts.
Now brainbay and therefore the NVM are assured of an available and scalable managed platform in the Cloud. With the best security and the latest security patches guaranteed. For the members of the cooperative, this means that it is possible for authorized external application developers to use datasets offered as a service by the NVM. This includes the extensive database of NVM company brainbay with information about homes, commercial real estate and agricultural companies. This database is also the source for all the offerings on Funda, the real estate platform of brokers for consumers and entrepreneurs in the Netherlands, and other brokerage websites. This allows organizations to subscribe to these services to integrate them into new or existing applications. The services are available on the platform and can be consumed based on standard methods, for a subscribed fee.
Future possibilities
The value of data is in knowing who is accessing it and when. This is visible in the personal dashboard of the NVM that is provided as part of Connext. The dashboard provides insights into which data is actually consumed by an organization. Real estate information, but also much sought-after information on the member side and the data side, that’s the value of the Connext service. By reporting this, brainbay has insight and can make better decisions. Because Yenlo manages the Connext platform and has a deep understanding of the WSO2 product, different use cases can easily be developed.
