Datarailer connects packaging manufacturers to the different UID/serialization and 2D code providers used by their customers. It securely receives, stores, allocates and delivers UIDs and/or 2D codes into factory production workflows through one common platform.
Brands use different UID/serialization and digital identity providers. Packaging manufacturers must therefore receive and manage codes from multiple systems, each with different APIs, authentication methods, file formats and operating rules.
Datarailer provides one factory-level platform for managing those connections.
It receives code sets from approved UID providers, securely stores them, prevents duplicate issuance, allocates them to production jobs and delivers them to factory and pre-press systems.
UID providers are responsible for generating UID or 2D codes and maintaining global uniqueness. Datarailer manages the factory workflow.
A separate integration for every brand and provider
One platform, one production workflow
Datarailer removes the need for packaging manufacturers to build and maintain a separate production integration for every serialization provider used by their customers.
Connect different UID/serialization and digital identity providers through one standard factory interface.
Receive and store provider-supplied UID and 2D code sets securely and exactly as delivered.
Automate the allocation of UID by GTIN, customer, production job or manufacturing site and deliver them to approved production systems.
Prevent a UID from being issued more than once within the relevant account.
Request additional UID from the configured provider when inventory falls below required levels.
Record whether UID were issued, consumed, retired or unused and report that information to providers and customers.
Support multiple packaging manufacturers and production facilities within controlled account boundaries.
Built to prevent duplicate allocation of UIDs, maintain a permanent record and support high-volume concurrent production.
From provider connection to usage reporting, one controlled factory workflow.
Datarailer connects to the UID and serialization, GS1 2D code and digital identity providers approved by the manufacturer or its brand customers.
Provider-supplied UID are received, securely stored and checked against the permanent duplicate registry.
UID codes are allocated by GTIN, customer, purchase order, production job or manufacturing site.
Approved UID are delivered through a standard interface to pre-press, printing or other production systems.
Datarailer records which UID codes were issued, consumed or retired and provides the required reporting and audit history.
Datarailer enables packaging manufacturers to support the different UID/serialization, traceability, UDI, and digital identity systems selected by their customers.
Support customer UID and serialization programs associated with pharmaceutical, product identity and traceability requirements.
Support multiple customers and UID code providers without building a separate production integration for every program.
Use your selected UID or 2D code provider while maintaining a controlled connection to packaging production.
Connect to packaging manufacturers through a consistent infrastructure layer rather than developing individual factory integrations.
Receive approved UID and 2D code sets through a standard and controlled interface.
As UID, serialization and digital product identity expand, brands will continue to select different providers based on technology, geography, regulation and supply-chain requirements.
Datarailer is the common infrastructure layer that allows packaging manufacturers to support those different UID ecosystems through one production platform.
Clean, RESTful endpoints with idempotency support, pagination, and detailed error responses.
