Published purpose

An extension of the Informatika system to support clients who don’t have an API but provide direct access to their product catalog via data feed files. These files are uploaded to an FTP to be downloaded and processed. The Firm will need to absorb their data feed files at least once daily (depending on how often the file is updated) to ensure the client’s products are all up to date; mostly the price and stock status. The Firm will need to build an API which would allow the Firm to query the data in these feeds, like how API Clients function, and then aggregate all products to display on the Firm's web site. Datafeeds can have anywhere from 100,000 to millions of rows, one for each product, containing at least 10 different data points like image, title, url, and price.
