Abstract

A method of inventory data aggregation and delivery over a distributed network comprises generating inventory data with respect to plural disparate sources, and publishing that data over a distributed network to an event processor. The method further includes receiving the published inventory data through subscription to the event processor and distributing it to a plurality of requesting devices, e.g., client devices, over the distributed network. This can include aggregating and filtering by locale or product-type the inventory data in response to requests received from those devices. This can further include reducing the aggregated, filtered data to accommodate inventory reserves, e.g., of retail outlets.
