Yes, Makini supports both cloud-based and on-premises systems. For on-premises installations, connections require double the connection credits compared to cloud systems. The connection process typically requires opening specific ports and whitelisting Makini's IP addresses in your firewall configuration. For some on-premises systems, VPN tunnels may be necessary. We provide detailed technical requirements during implementation planning. In cases where security policies prohibit external connections, we offer self-hosted deployment options where Makini runs entirely within your infrastructure, eliminating the need for external network access to on-premises systems.
Yes, Makini provides extensive customization options for field mappings. Through the connection settings interface, you can view how each system's fields map to Makini's unified model. You can remap fields, add custom field mappings, or create entirely new custom fields that will appear in API responses. These customizations are connection-specific, allowing different mapping configurations for different customers. Mapping changes take effect immediately without requiring code changes. For standardized workflows, default mappings typically provide sufficient coverage. Custom mappings are most useful when integrating with heavily customized systems or when you need fields beyond the standard unified model.
Industrial systems are often heavily customized, and Makini is built to handle this. For reading data, Makini can access virtually any field or custom table in connected systems. Through the connection settings interface, you can specify custom fields, tables, or entities to include in API responses. These show up alongside standard fields in the unified model. For custom objects not in our default model, you can request them through the interface and they'll be available immediately. For writing data, customization support varies by system but covers most common scenarios. During implementation, we work with you to identify required customizations and ensure they're properly configured before going live.
Makini monitors connection health continuously and provides multiple ways to detect reauthorization needs. The connection status endpoint returns the current state including whether reauthorization is required. Makini sends webhooks when connections enter a state requiring reauthorization, allowing proactive notification. API requests to a connection requiring reauthorization return specific error codes prompting reconnection. The Makini dashboard displays connection status across all customers. Best practice is to implement webhook listeners for connection status changes and proactively notify customers when reauthorization is needed, rather than waiting for operations to fail. Include clear instructions on how to reconnect in your notification.
