This document provides an overview of the TIMS integration, including key contacts, implementation details, and configuration specifics within the VA.gov integration through Vets API.
The Imaging Management System
VistA Imaging System? ( a.k.a TIMS) It would appear we don't directly integrate with TIMS. Rather Veteran Online Application integrates with TIMS and we integrate with Veteran Online Application (VONAPP)
Integration Endpoints
Vets API uploads spool files for the TIMS team via SFTP. This is run as a cronjob that runs on a schedule in Vets API via Sidekiq workers. The TIMS server sits in the PITC data center in Pittsburgh, while the TIMS application is hosted in Illinois.
Monitoring
The SFTP server is reached through our forward proxy and there are healthchecks and for this server in the standard forward proxy monitors. Its name is "tims_back".
