Presenting data on public facing websites

Sitekit CMS application programming interface (API) allows pages to be created that derive their content from externally held third party sites or data sources via XML.

This can be further extended to enable the processing of site specific business logic from such sites.

Typical uses

The architecture has been used to date in many different situations, including the following:

• Online booking system – the creation of a ten stage holiday booking system taking users from their choice of destination and departure date through to insurance choices and upgrades before finally processing secure credit card payment via https.
• Flight information – real time display of flight information embedded into a data island on an airports web site.
• Stock monitoring and display – integration with a company’s own stock control database to display real-time availability information on the customer’s website.
• Insurance quotes – integration with company’s own business logic to provide real-time travel insurance quotes based around a three stage questionnaire process.
• Self assessment – A ten stage structured questionnaire. Allowing a web site’s users to self assess their business needs against several criteria. Users do not need to complete the questionnaire in a single session but can return to it at any point, but not revise earlier answers.
