to the web with ICE.

as they happen?

Can your system easily flex for dynamic processes AND expand for new business opportunities?
Yes - ICE supports business agility making it easy to add/modify events.

without impacting existing transactions or requiring a reset or restart.

Can your system perform 24/7x365 with stability and reliability?
Yes - ICE runs without infrastructure dependencies or support demands.
No proprietary services or message queues are required to run ICE. ICE Integration
is ASP.NET XML Web Services. And, ICE Integration has been built with auto offline
sensing and will auto retry and resume if there is a problem with the connection.

Yes - ICE connects systems that are thought to be unreachable.
ICE Integration spans boundaries with firewall friendly http/s and supports custom
