Types of data exchange integration.

Answer from AI
Types of integration by data exchange can be classified as follows:
-
Synchronous integration — data exchange occurs in real-time, with the sender waiting for a response from the receiver. Example: REST API calls.
-
Asynchronous integration — the sender does not wait for an immediate response; data is transmitted through message queues, brokers (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka). It helps to unload systems and increase fault tolerance.
-
Batch (batch) integration — data exchange occurs periodically, in large batches. Often used for file exchanges (CSV, XML) or database exports.
-
Streaming integration — data is transmitted in a continuous stream, for example, via WebSocket or streaming data technologies.
The choice of integration type depends on requirements for speed, reliability, and data volume.
