PC MILER Web Services is designed to efficiently
fulfill all PC MILER routing, mileage and mapping
transactions in a simple ubiquitous system-interface to any
platform. Web services in general allow different
applications from different sources to communicate with each
other without time-consuming custom coding and because all
communication is in XML (Extensible Markup Language), web
services are not tied to any one operating system or
programming language. For example, Java can talk with Perl,
and Windows applications can talk with UNIX applications.
A hardware and software agnostic
interface, PC MILER Web Services gives you the ability to
access the functionality associated with the core PC MILER
product making it easier to share data and improve
efficiency. It offers a standardized way of integrating
Web-based applications using XML and SOAP (Simple Object
Access Protocol) over an Internet Protocol Backbone, where
XML is used to tag data and SOAP is used to transfer the
data.
Hosted in an enterprise-ready, 24/7 data
center provides users with a consistent and reliable source
for PC MILER mileage, mapping and routing needs. It also
provides transparent access to quarterly and/or annual map,
data and routing updates to keep your operations in one
central location, running on the most reliable routes.
PC MILER Web Services provides a standardized environment in
which your transportation costs such as rates, routes,
actual driven mileage, driver satisfaction, surcharges, and
toll costs can be accurately managed. It also helps to
eliminate the need for extra IT resources, including
maintaining and supporting multiple servers.
