Connect Sitecore and katana

Connecting Sitecore and katana for a company could enable the transfer of content, user data, or business logic between the two platforms. This could support improved coordination of digital assets and workflows, help maintain data consistency, and potentially facilitate more efficient management of web content and related processes across both systems.

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

Why connect Sitecore and katana?

:A company operating both Sitecore and katana might consider connecting these systems to improve the accuracy and timeliness of information shared across the business. Without such a connection, employees could face challenges such as entering the same data into both systems, which increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable time. Over time, records in Sitecore and katana could diverge, leading to inconsistencies that make it difficult to trust reports or make informed decisions. Decisions based on outdated or mismatched information could have operational or financial consequences. If a connection were established, the types of data exchanged would depend on the core functions of each system and business requirements. For example, if Sitecore is used for digital experience management and katana for business operations, shared data could include customer information, order details, or content updates. However, what can actually be exchanged would depend on the data each system makes available through its API and would need to be determined case by case.

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 Sitecore and katana 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.
