Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) is a process of integrating of various information systems inside the enterprise.
For this purpose technologies and applications which should combine several applications are used in one organization in a single process, and implement the transformation of data formats between them.
The need to integrate applications usually occurs if the information systems are developed by different manufacturers, and if the number of information systems is rather big so that to implement the integration between each pair requires a lot of resources.
TIBCO BusinessWorks or BizTalk Server are high-performance and scalable EAI systems which allow to arrange information sharing between enterprise information systems, for instance, ERP, CRM, MES etc.
Advantages of EAI implementation:
- Makes information infrastructure more flexible and understandable;
- Allows to unify and simplify the creation of integration scenarios;
- Allows to monitor and control the load on the system and related systems.
