Types of Data Transfer

The following types of data transfer are available:
  • Triggered Messages - These are messages that the Corporate Data Transfer Interface (CDTI) sends automatically to the external system whenever the event is triggered. This could be when a particular cruise is closed in the cruise table or after a certain time of the cruise closing, to ensure all data from the ship has transferred completely from the ship to shore. This method supports all three data transfers.

  • On-Demand Messages - These are pre-defined messages which the external system sends to the Corporate Data Transfer Interface (CDTI) & gets an answer in a pre-defined format. This method supports only the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) transfer methods.
