The Challenge
A software house client required custom-built cloud connectors to integrate seamlessly with several industry-leading document management providers. Off-the-shelf solutions did not meet the client’s compliance, performance, and architectural needs, prompting the need for a bespoke solution.
Objectives
- Evaluate multiple cloud providers and understand their document management capabilities
- Analyse available APIs and integration options
- Design and develop custom connectors tailored to each provider
- Support testing, documentation, and operational handover
We followed a full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to ensure quality and agility throughout the project:
-
- Discovery & Requirements Gathering through sessions with technical and compliance teams
- Solution Architecture & Design for scalable, secure connector components
- Agile Development using Kotlin and Java, delivering features in iterative sprints
- System Integration Testing (SIT) and performance tuning to ensure stability
- User Acceptance Testing (UAT), detailed documentation, and team handover
Our Approach
The Outcome
- Successfully designed and developed 15 cloud connectors integrated with the client’s enterprise platform
- Enabled seamless connectivity with top-tier cloud providers
- Enhanced automation, document processing, and data access workflows
- Delivered a scalable, reusable framework to support future integrations
- Achieved full handover and operational readiness with internal client teams
