Enterprise application integration (EAI) is the process of linking 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.
EAI is not just about sharing data between applications; it focuses on sharing both business data and business process, there by standardizing, identifying and reducing the duplication of data and processes across the enterprise.This leads to consistency, maintainability, visibility and accountability in the enterprise.
With the advent of technologies like Common Object Request Broker (CORBA), Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Web Services and a slew of Java based solutions like RMI; EAI is no longer the mountain that all enterprises dread to get over.
EAI helps management break the silos in an enterprise and promotes the reuse of processes and better sharing of data to promote better decision making.
