Do more with less...
One of the biggest challenges that an enterprise faces today is the fragmented information across stovepipes of applications. Integration solutions like point-to-point and traditional integration tools are proprietary and making the landscape fragmented. Companies are spending a large portion of their IT budgets in managing the applications and their integrations across the applications as the business needs change as well as the applications get upgraded.
Powered by Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Oracle AIA is an application-independent standardized framework and is based on common object model. AIA can be used not only to integrate Oracle applications like R12, Siebel, PeopleSoft but the legacy, third-party and non-Oracle applications as well. What’s more, you also get a standard-based reference architecture that can be adopted.
Many customers have started leveraging AIA to overcome SOA adoption challenges; to reconcile semantic differences across applications. With pre-integrated service packs (PIPs), AIA offers faster time-to-market and lower total cost of ownership. A PIP is an out-of-the-box collection of service to manage your key business processes like order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, etc.
These days, applications are being built to integrate and not be thickly created as silos. The business process changes faster than you plan. There is a strong need of cross functional process improvement. With choices being so wide on products available, it is essential to develop a future-proof integration so that new products can replace old systems seamlessly in a phased manner as per budgets and business plans. AIA implements Service-Oriented Architecture on common object model making the solution repeatable and robust enhancing the value of technology investments.
Don’t reinvent the wheel. Use AIA to implement SOA.
