Rapid Integration Through Standardized EAI Components
Businesses spend more money on connecting to applications and data than on any other aspect of Enterprise Application Integration (EAI).
Much of it is spent buying or building "adapters" - technical interfaces used by developers and integration specialists to communicate with specific applications. Intelligent adapters make these users more productive by reducing the complexity of the connections among applications. That reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) of EAI implementations, yielding higher and faster payback.
Better adapters can have a startlingly high impact on the return on investment (ROI) of integration projects.
iWay Touchpoint Adapters, or "touchpoints," exemplify the next generation of intelligent adapter technology. They don't require handcrafted programs to call an Application Programming Interface (API). Instead, touchpoints accept standard business documents over standard communication protocols and interact with enterprise applications based on the business content. By focusing on payloads of business data instead of technical connections, iWay Touchpoint Adapters make integration faster, easier to maintain, and more economical than ever before.
Comparison of tool-managed processes based on hand-coded API calls vs. iWay Touchpoint Adapter-managed processes. Since the touchpoint automatically invokes the proper procedures in the proper order, the bottom figure represents a considerable reduction in developer effort.
