The Separation Model - Part 21 - A Notification System
--------------------------------------------------
Rather than creating one or two scripts to solve one
specific problem, it's typically better to solve the
whole problem by creating a system which can be
leveraged in more than one place and by more than one
database system.
Such is the case with the Notifications system, which is
now integrated into the KarateApp sample database.
The Notifications system is one in which a general
approach is taken to sending out notifications to any
target device via a particular method. What this means
is that a SmartPhone would be a target device and SMS
would be the method of notification.
Of course, the most common method of sending a
notification might be email with the target being an
email client. Ultimately, what we're talking about is
getting the right information to the right people and
doing it within a system which accommodates all the
various possible methods.
Wish your FileMaker database could notify someone via
email, sms, twitter, facebook post or some other method?
Well, give this video a watch and you'll see that making
this type of system is certainly possible.
