Enterprise Application Integration

Enterprise Application Integration combines the technologies and processes that enable custom-built and/or packaged business applications to exchange business-level information in formats and contexts that each understand.

There are four major categories of EAI:

• Database linking: databases share information and duplicate information as needed
• Application linking: the enterprise shares business processes and data between two or more applications
• Data warehousing: data is extracted from a variety of data sources and channeled into a specific database for analysis
• Common virtual system: the pinnacle of EAI; all aspects of enterprise computing are tied together so that they appear as a unified application

Mainward EAI solutions can provide flexible integration infrastructure preparing your business for the coming wave of e-services. We help our customers to architect and implement integration strategies that allow access to information within core systems across multiple access channels enabling a seamless execution of a business process. Integration forms the primary middleware or glue that binds systems within the organization.
