I have some external hardware which doesn't talk directly to anything outside of itself (though it is networked up). It is controlled through a configuration of sorts held in a Redis DB. Under certain circumstances I would like to update the redis store so the server can act accordingly.
At the moment I'm going down the route of exposing a REST API in AIM that the server can call, using the resulting data to update redis. That's kind of OK for most of them, but I don't have the luxury of being able to install extra scripts on all of them. I can however connect to the redis server.
I'm sure there's a million middleware ways to achieve the same result, just wondered if anyone had done it directly in AIM.
