Hello everybody,
I do have a very important request from one of our main customers for which I couldn´t find any official documentation to at least back up my answer properly. We´re currently implementing SharePoint 2013, specifically Managed Metadata Services, and one of the biggest concerns it´s the interoperability capabilities of it.
Currently the customer has another taxonomy implementation in place in which the term store resides, for which they could only provide a web service that SharePoint supposedly has to utilize and connect to for replicating changes and term sets from this external term store into SharePoint´s MMS term store . As far as I know MMS doesn´t provide any out of the box feature for implementing this nor a web service either, so I wonder if there´s actually a third party component or if someone could provide detailed information about this topic , ideally a workaround or some other guidelines are much appreciated.
Thank you!
