(EAI is the) use of software and architectural
principles to bring together (integrate) a set of enterprise computer
applications. It is an area of computer systems architecture that
gained wide recognition from as recently as 2004 onwards. EAI is
related to middleware technologies such as message-oriented middleware
(MOM), and data representation technologies such as XML. Newer EAI
technologies involve using web services as part of service-oriented
architecture as a means of integration. [Gridpedia][PO-JRA-1.1.1] The Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) discipline deals with the mechanism for integrating isolated enterprise applications into a consistent whole. {SYN: EAI} |
