NewfangledCMS: Data Import and Export
Bridging the software gap with batch import and exporting.
The NewfangledCMS data import and export application converts site data for downloading and importing into other systems. Likewise, data from other systems can be uploaded into a website.Managing shopping carts, orders, and product catalogs for e-commerce are primary examples of where data importing and exporting are necessary. However, batch uploading large quantities of information is important for non-e-commerce sites too. Rhode Island Public Transit Authority uses the data upload application to upload their bus schedule route information.
Our data import and export component commonly uses an "Excel bridge" to upload and download content in and out of the site. An "Excel bridge" allows us to synchronize data structures to work with whatever database or backend system our client happens to be using.
While most batch uploading processes involve human interaction, sometimes automated scripts can handle regular synchronization between site data and other systems.
