Everything. Integrated.


The Goal - Enterprise Integration

In contrast to the development-centric approach of all prior generations of computing, developers now begin work by seeking to connect together existing systems, building new components (using traditional style development) only where absolutely necessary. This manner of delivering strategic systems has given birth to a new computing model - Enterprise Application Integration (EAI).

The Problem - Legacy Systems and Development Models

Inherited systems present a particularly difficult set of challenges for EAI. Online interactive applications are typically built as independent systems using proprietary data communications protocols, talking to complex heavily loaded character-based presentation interfaces. The well-layered application system is the occasional exception.

The Solution - Standards Based Middleware

Messaging software acts as the wiring that connects corporate systems, transferring data and transactions between different applications such as a mainframe and a company's Web-based sales software. By using messaging software such as IBM WebSphere MQ via JMS, applications can interact with any application on any platform without having to deal with the operating system specific intercommunication details. Once components are exposed via messaging middleware, they can be accessed by any other application that implements the same standards.
