DOTS Web Service Improvements
At Service Objects, we are constantly improving our DOTS Web Services. Some services automatically improve themselves, like DOTS IP Validation. This service has over 45,000 listening posts worldwide that dynamically record the IP addresses of malicious or fraudulent activity. Some services, like DOTS Address Validation, are manually updated every month to guarantee that we use the freshest data available.
Other improvements to our DOTS Web Services occur on a less regular basis, usually when a client needs a feature that we are not currently offering. We recently added an operation to DOTS Address Geocode – US, in order to return state and county FIPS codes, Census tract data, and block numbers. We have also greatly increased the performance of DOTS Email Validation in order to handle a much larger transaction volume. In the near future, we will be deploying changes to DOTS Phone Append, which will greatly increase our match rates for businesses.
We are always thinking of ways to improve our DOTS Web Services. If you have an idea how we can serve you better, please let us know!
