Connect amazon and IBM AS/400

Connecting Amazon and IBM AS/400 for a company could enable the transfer of order, inventory, or customer data between the systems. Such an integration would require mapping data formats, establishing secure data transfer protocols, and ensuring consistency between the two platforms to support business operations and reporting needs.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between amazon and IBM AS/400 around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect amazon and IBM AS/400?

A company that operates both Amazon and IBM AS/400 systems could benefit from enabling data exchange between these platforms. Such a connection could streamline business processes by reducing the need for manual data entry across separate systems, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. Without integration, there is a risk that information such as inventory levels, order statuses, or customer records could diverge between the two systems, leading to inconsistencies. This can result in operational inefficiencies, such as fulfilling orders based on outdated stock data or making business decisions on incomplete financial information. Data commonly exchanged between systems of these types includes inventory updates, sales orders, shipment notifications, and financial transactions. The actual scope of data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and is determined per situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what amazon and IBM AS/400 make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
