Enterprise Application Integration (EAI)

Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) is an integration framework composed of a collection of technologies and services which form a middleware to enable integration of systems and applications across the enterprise.

Enterprise application integration (EAI) is the process of linking such applications within a single organization together in order to simplify and automate business processes to the greatest extent possible, while at the same time avoiding having to make sweeping changes to the existing applications or data structures. In the words of the Gartner Group, EAI is the “unrestricted sharing of data and business processes among any connected application or data sources in the enterprise.”[1]

One large challenge of EAI is that the various systems that need to be linked together often reside on different operating systems, use different database solutions and different computer languages, and in some cases are legacy systems that are no longer supported by the vendor who originally created them. In some cases, such systems are dubbed "stovepipe systems" because they consist of components that have been jammed together in a way that makes it very hard to modify them in any way.

 

 
 Product Development

CMFII has, since its inception, embraced product development as a core business focus. The dedicated team, which brings, together decades of experience, places great emphasis on meeting the demands of global companies that wish to outsource their product development. With a strong ‘Go to Market’ strategy our clients are assured of a quality product delivered within a ‘time to market’ plan.

Unlike software application development, product development involves a lot of ground work to define the product vision, consider product sustainability and ensure business success. A product development initiative must guarantee quality and work towards a specific release date. We understand where priorities lie. We will build a product road map jointly with our client, then work to develop the product within the target budget and to deliver on time. Our clients can be sure of speed, quality and cost savings.
