Interface

One Interface (engl. Interface) in computer science and technology refers to a defined connection between two systems, components or programmes via which data and information are exchanged. It enables communication between different units, for example between software applications (e.g. via APIs), between hardware devices or between humans and machines (user interface).

Interfaces are essential components of any modern software solution. With POS marketing software PRESTIGEenterprise they enable the connection of external systems such as merchandise management, ERP or cash register systems. Smooth data exchange is guaranteed via standardised API or individual interfaces. This allows content to be automatically imported, updated or played out for specific locations. The integration of external systems ensures a high level of efficiency, accelerates processes and prevents duplicate data maintenance. Interfaces create the basis for a networked, digital infrastructure in the retail sector.
