Migration from silos to an event-driven and resource oriented architecture

More data needs to be exchanged between applications, especially to have a 360 degrees view of the consumer and the vehicle. The existing IT landscape, based on silos applications and mainframe proved to be difficult, expensive and error prone to achieve this goal. Moving to a resource oriented architecture has facilitated the sharing of data by making it available to any application or service interested. Coupling this with an event architecture transformed the batch-driven processes to a reactive, decoupled collaboration of services.
