AppIntegration

Connecting Localz to external systems and services — as opposed to CommunicationPatterns, which is internal service-to-service.

Why we need this / what value this brings

Third-party integrations are where reliability problems that aren't your fault still become your incidents if you don't design for their failure modes.

When to use this

Any time Localz calls out to (or receives calls from) a system it doesn't control — payments, maps, notifications, Clerk.

How to use or implement this

Wrap every external call with a timeout and a defined failure behavior before shipping it, not after the first outage.

Research questions

  • What third parties does Localz actually integrate with today (payments, maps, notifications)?
