Application Integration

Based on ever-changing business demands, companies evolve into complex organizations. This is also true of enterprise environments, which evolve proportionately into complex systems, coupled with larger and larger recurring expenses.

Also, the requirement to integrate applications is a pressing one for many companies. Frequently corporate mergers and acquisitions require applications to be merged or integrated. For other companies there might be an urgent need to implement package solutions such as ERP applications, yet have such applications draw upon and provide data to legacy systems.

The challenge for most organizations is to find the best architecture and tools to support integration of existing applications and data, addition of new packages or components, and extension of all pieces to provide the custom functionality required for competitive advantage.

There are many definitions of EAI depending on whom one asks or where sought out. We define EAI as the unrestricted sharing of data and business processes with any “actor” whether that actor is an individual, connected application or data source in the enterprise. We also proscribe this unrestricted sharing to occur across multiple, geographically distributed enterprise elements. EAI is all about interoperability and real-time information synchronization across multiple applications and information sources. EAI enables collaboration, not just within an enterprise but within a business ecosystem that includes a company, partners, suppliers, and customers.

One needs to share these data and processes without making sweeping changes to the applications or data structures. In other words, we must leave it where it lies in order for EAI to become cost-effective.
