Showcase project 01 · concept
See when data stops moving.
The integration monitor brings data transfers, failures and retries into one clear view. Its purpose is to make an invisible background process understandable and manageable.
A designed showcase concept — the views use fictional data and do not represent a client delivery.
Integrations
Connection status
Active exception
SYNC-2048Stock level for product SKU-410 could not be updated.
3 attempts · latest 10:42The business problem
An integration can fail for hours before anyone notices.
When systems transfer data in the background, successful events remain invisible and failures are often found only after a customer reports them or an invoice goes missing.Data disappears in transit
An order exists in the online store but never reaches the ERP.
The cause remains unclear
A technical log contains detail, but not what an employee should do next.
Recovery takes too long
The failed event must be found and replayed manually.
Solution structure
Monitoring makes an integration maintainable.
Event tracking
Each transfer records its status, timestamp, source and destination.
Understandable errors
A technical failure becomes a clear explanation with a suggested next action.
Safe retries
A failed transfer can run again without creating duplicates.
Alerts for the right person
A notification is sent only when human attention is actually needed.
Example scenario
What happens when a stock level fails to update?
The source sends an update
The inventory system reports a new stock level for a product.
The receiving service rejects it
The product identifier does not exist in the online store.
Automatic retry
The monitor retries the transfer according to an agreed rule.
The exception is routed to a person
The owner receives a clear alert with the information needed to act.
Event inspection
One view explains what happened.
Transferred data

Plain-language error
Product SKU-410 was not found in the online store. Check the product ID or create the missing product before retrying.
What this project demonstrates
This is more than a polished dashboard.
The showcase focuses on solution design: making integration health visible, handling exceptions safely and deciding what information different users need.- Modelling integrations and data flows
- Designing failure handling and safe retries
- Accounting for logging and traceability
- Turning technical information into an understandable interface
