Makini maintains a comprehensive data model built from analyzing thousands of industrial systems. When data flows through Makini, we automatically transform it from the source system's format into our standardized structure. For example, purchase orders from SAP, NetSuite, and Dynamics all return with consistent field names, data types, and structures. This normalization happens in real-time as data passes through the API. You also have access to raw data if needed for specific use cases. The unified model covers common entities like purchase orders, work orders, inventory items, vendors, and assets, with extensive field coverage across systems.
The `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` error indicates you've exceeded the API rate limit for the connection or account. Rate limits are typically set per connection and per time window (usually per minute). When you hit a rate limit, the response includes a `Retry-After` header indicating when you can retry the request. Implement exponential backoff in your retry logic to avoid immediately hitting the limit again. If you consistently hit rate limits, review your API usage patterns—you may be making unnecessary requests, polling too frequently, or could benefit from webhook-based synchronization. For legitimate high-volume needs, contact us to discuss increasing your rate limits.
Makini takes a defense-in-depth approach to security. All data in transit uses TLS 1.2 or higher. Data at rest is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. Customer credentials are encrypted using secure key management with separate encryption keys per customer. We implement network segmentation, strict access controls, and follow the principle of least privilege. Our infrastructure undergoes regular security audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments. We're SOC 2 Type 2 certified, demonstrating our commitment to security controls. Employee access to production systems is logged and monitored. For customers with strict compliance requirements, we offer self-hosted deployments where data never leaves your infrastructure, eliminating Makini as a data processor.
Yes, through Makini Flows, which includes connectors for popular databases including Snowflake, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and others. This enables workflows that synchronize data between industrial systems and your data warehouse or analytics platforms. For example, you can sync purchase orders from SAP to Snowflake for analytics, or use database queries to drive integration logic. Database integrations use the same workflow builder as other integrations, making it easy to combine industrial system data with database operations. For direct database-to-database syncing, we can help design optimized workflows. Database connections are treated as custom integrations and may require additional workflow development.
