Enterprise Interoperability The successful implementation of consistent, scalable, reliable, incremental and cost effective solutions depends on the standards and methodologies that are defined for these levels. The successful implementation of consistent, scalable, reliable, incremental and cost effective solutions depends on the standards and methodologies that are defined for these levels. Consider the following four questions: 1. How is information to be shared within an Application? 2. How is information to be shared between Applications within an Enterprise (A2A)? 3. How is information to be shared between Enterprises (A2B, B2A and B2B)? 4. How is information to be shared directly with Customers (C2B and B2C)?

Open Architecture An integration platform must be based on open rather than proprietary standards to ensure interoperability among the applications that run on it or are managed by it An integration platform must be based on open rather than proprietary standards to ensure interoperability among the applications that run on it or are managed by it Enterprises that thrive in the future will be those that can rapidly assimilate packaged applications and reuse existing applications in new ways.

EAI Benefits Application integration is evolving into a software infrastructure layer that it is built on standards and provides a fully extensible enterprise platform. Application integration is evolving into a software infrastructure layer that it is built on standards and provides a fully extensible enterprise platform. The goal is a renewed focus on business problems themselves and not on infrastructure or integration, resulting in : Rapid application development Control Project Cost standards-based solution that provides not only near-term value but ensures increased time-to-value for future IT initiatives.

Enterprise Application Integration The key to developing a Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) Architecture is recognizing that there are different levels of integration, each with its own particular requirements and considerations.The key to developing a Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) Architecture is recognizing that there are different levels of integration, each with its own particular requirements and considerations.

Application to Application The complete A2A architecture must embrace the new component standard for application development, middleware products for cross-platform communication, as well as all of the technologies and standards that have already been deployed within the Enterprise. Businesses can not afford to replace or reengineer all of their mission critical applications. Businesses can not afford to replace or reengineer all of their mission critical applications.

Responding to the Challenge What steps should I take to ensure that our organization flourishes in the digital business economy?”

Integrate Within Your Enterprise The most important first step in successfully positioning your enterprise is integrating the disparate, disconnected applications that are used within your enterprise to automate your business processes. The most important first step in successfully positioning your enterprise is integrating the disparate, disconnected applications that are used within your enterprise to automate your business processes. Initiating communication among all the disparate applications. Most applications within an enterprise are heterogeneous; they have been written in different programming languages and run on different operating systems and hardware platforms. An underlying software that enables communication between a mix of these different and disparate application regardless of their platforms.
22
Achieved by modifying or writing new programs that calls the business logic of the integrated applications through their adapters Manage Business Processes When this new application is executed, it calls each of the integrated applications in a sequence that corresponds with the flow of an enterprise-wide business process.

Accommodates future changes to business processes, new integration needs, new business partners Benefits Review Accomplish business goals faster by dividing and conquering your server-side deployments. Superior to the costly prospect of writing an entire solution in-house or purchasing an off-the-shelf product that is not extensible for future needs. Use a stable, standards-based, extensible infrastructure that allows developers to focus their expertise on solving unique business problems and creating innovative new applications.
