If it's exposed externally, then Salesforce should be able to interact with it.  Salesforce has the ability to call either RESTful or SOAP services (or really any HTTP service).  For more on how to integrate with Salesforce, check out the following Trailhead module: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/module/apex_integration_services
