• Ability to implement Web Services, including an ability to interact securely, in real–time, with other systems via standard Internet protocols such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/HTTPS), Extensible Markup Language (XML), and Representational State Transfer (REST).• Incorporate a mechanism such as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) to decouple the application layer from communication channels, and to provide data transformation services.• Provide a graphical user interface for user interaction.• The system must accommodate automatic archival and purge functionality.• Control data retention through the use of parameters.• The system must comprise a tiered architecture for flexibility and maintainability. At a minimum, the architecture must separate the system into three tiers including to presentation, application, and data.• Scalable, offering the ability to add capacity by adding infrastructure (e.g. servers) to the data center.• Embody a service or modular orientation to promote code reuse, standards, and easier maintenance.• The primary programming language for the system must be a modern mainstream language. If proposed solution will be supported by DWSS, Java is required• Must offer modern communication channels, e.g. HTTP / HTTPS, SMS and email.• Client communication facility must support structured–data client responses to facilitate automated processing of returned data, e.g. XML and JSON
