In
today’s business computing environment it
is common to find business applications that
have been developed to solve specific business
problems. These applications have typically
been developed independently of one another,
with no means of communicating effectively
between applications. In the past these applications
have performed their business functions
quite nicely with no need of communicating
with external applications. In recent years
however
several driving factors have come which require
the integration of these disparate
applications.
Automated business process management, customer
relationship management,
business-to-business scenarios such as supply
chain management, are but a few of these
factors. Add to this the power gained by creating
new business solutions based on existing
applications, such as Web Services and Portals
and you have the primary driving factors for
Business Application Integration (BAI). This
type of application integration can benefit
businesses of all sizes. When taken to the
corporate enterprise level this type of integration
is known as Enterprise Application Integration
(EAI).
Noospherics Technologies Inc. has the expertise
to help businesses of all sizes develop robust,
scaleable EAI/BAI solutions. A variety of
services are available to assist companies
