Data Integration and Enterprise Application Integration (EAI)
As businesses grow, so does their reliance on multiple software applications. When this happens, businesses often face the need for data integration, which requires their software applications to ‘talk’ to each other and exchange information, even though such software applications may store and transfer information differently. Such data integration combines technical and business processes from disparate sources into meaningful and valuable information. This greatly benefits the business by amplifying the benefits of their existing solutions to increase productivity, increase capabilities and reduce costs. When such data integration is within an organization, it is referred as Enterprise Application Integration (EAI).
