Apparatus for integrating a new subsystem with an existing computing architecture, the apparatus includes a first physical interface for receiving data from the existing computing apparatus, a second physical interface for outputting data to the new subsystem; a processing means, and memory having stored thereon a first software module, a plurality of other software modules, and a first stored configuration, wherein the first software module, when executed by the processing means, is configured to read the first stored configuration and to cause the processing means to load a combination of ones of the plurality of other software modules, the combination of ones of the plurality of other software modules and a first subset of the combination of ones of the plurality of other software modules being defined by the first stored configuration, the first subset of the combination being operable, when executed by the processing means, to transform data received at the first physical interface into a form that is compatible with the new subsystem and to output the transformed data to the new subsystem, via the second physical interface. |
