Integration architecture
Agreed patterns for APIs, events and files, with a catalogue of interfaces and an owner for each.
Industry context
Integration, APIs and iPaaS in financial services
Hosn Al Tomoh builds financial services integration with API lifecycle discipline, idempotent money-movement patterns, and lineage. Risk and audit can then see how data flows between core systems and channels.
Payment and core integrations fail silently when retries and compensating transactions are undefined. We specify error budgets, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation jobs that operations can run before supervisors ask.
We catalogue schemas and deprecations, so partners and internal consumers upgrade on a coordinated schedule and not through surprise outages during regulatory reporting windows.
Observability ties business events to technical traces, so incident reviews improve the architecture and not only the runbook.
How the work is organised
From design to stable operation, with the evidence risk committees, internal audit and regulators ask for.
API management
Versioning, security and usage policies for APIs, published to internal and partner developers.
Monitoring and recovery
Alerts, retries and replay for failed messages, with dashboards your operations team can use.
Open banking and open finance
Bank APIs follow the CBUAE Open Finance Regulation in the UAE and the SAMA Open Banking Framework in Saudi Arabia, with SAMA's Cyber Security Framework for the controls around them. We map API security, consent and logging to the rules that apply.
Security and access
Authentication, encryption and least-privilege access for every interface, reviewed with your security team.
Versioning and change
Interface versions, deprecation notices and tests, so a change in one system does not break another.
Checks before you start
An integration programme is ready to start when the systems to connect, their owners and the data each one masters are known.
- The classification of customer and transaction data has been agreed.
- The owners of the main systems to be connected are named and available to agree interface contracts.
- The system of record for each main data type has been agreed.

Share your current systems, compliance themes and timeline. We will return a phased plan, a staffing model and a risk register for your stakeholders to review.
