Enterprise Application Integration

Enterprise Application Integration (EAI)

Enterprise application integration (EAI) integrates the databases and workflows associated with the business application and facilitaes the communication between enterprise applications that helps the free flow of data between the application without significant changes to the database configuration. This helps to have streamlined processes and increased data avialbility.

Why is enterprise application integration important?

As your organization increases in size, several front office and back office functions also grow in size. Business depends on several application for accounts, customer relationship management, administrative functions, analytics platforms and other important support functions which have critical and important data. There are possibilities if, the data is modified in one application and are not reflected in another application, it may have to be entered manually. These may create confusion and will result in poor access of information, also there will be administrative delays and the process will be time consuming.

EAI provides a methodology that helps to reduce manual handling and user errors. It provides a better insight into organizational data. This becomes more important as an organization grows and as technology advances. This will help application to communicate with each other, transfer data back and forth and share business rules and will have better efficiencies level and error free work flow.

In recent times, automation has increased efficiencies of the user to carry on day-to-day activities like formatting data and transferring data from one system to another. This need to quickly make data available between applications will only increase as more organizations adopt microservices, software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) tools. Enterprise applications can be deployed on private cloud servers, hosted either on-premises or managed off-site by a third-party service provider.

There are three enterprise needs that are driving the adoption of enterprise application integration:

Data Integration

Enterprise organizations that deploy many externally and internally facing applications need to integrate data from across those applications, ensuring that databases are synchronized and streamlining data access and availability throughout the entire organization.


Vendor independence

EAI helps reduce an organization's dependence on individual software vendors. Instead of customizing an application with business rules, the organization instead customizes its enterprise application integration system with business rules and policies, making it easier to swap out enterprise applications and choose new vendors when necessary.

Common Interfacing

EAI creates an common interface (GUI) and allows the user to access access multiple applications. It connects seamlessly with existing applications, databases, and other enterprise tools. This streamlines administrative processes and helps employees be more productive using enterprise applications.
