What is the InForm Adapter software?

The InForm Adapter software provides interfaces to web services that support the secure transfer of data between InForm studies and either Oracle products (such as the Clintrial Integration Solution (CIS), Central Coding, and Data Management Workbench (DMW) applications) or third-party products and custom applications. Each application that can accept queries or updates to its data and metadata from InForm studies requires a specific set of interfaces.

Like application programming interfaces (APIs), the InForm Adapter interfaces use published web services interfaces to allow programmatic access to applications. This allows Oracle products to be tightly integrated with each other and with third-party products.
