It sounds like you're talking about database triggers.  I don't know
off-hand if Unidata supports triggers but if it does then the answer is
yes.  (I can ask on my side and get an answer on that but I'm sure someone
will chime in here.)  One of your normal processes will update a unidata
file, the trigger sends an event to some remote process which then puts the
data into some other application.  The "other application" must have an
Application Program Interface (API) which is a "plug" that we can hook into
for importing and exporting data.  I personally specialize in understanding
these plugs, and connecting products like this with MV apps.

This same sort of thing can be done by storing data to a localhost OS file
and then spawning another program to process that data, but this may not be
possible if your "other application" isn't on the localhost.  Part of the
service we provide is getting to understand your topology so that we can
recommend effective ways to do these things.  If mv.NET isn't the right
tool for the job, like if you need a completely Linux solution, I won't try
to sell mv.NET.
