As the technological landscape continues to advance, many products and solutions are being
released that cover different business activities. This leads many organizations to adopt several
products and solutions to meet the needs of their different business functions and processes. As a
result, business functions can carry out their specific activities better but will face the challenge of
having an integrated IT infrastructure of applications working together to fulfill business cycles.
Moreover, a huge sum of an organization's data remains in silos making it a big challenge for
management to make better decisions, respond faster to market changes, leverage big data, and
meet customer demands in a timely manner. Thus, the lack of a single source of truth for their entire
organizations data is a hindrance to its ability to optimize performance and overcome competition.
Our consultants are experts in integration services. We offer our clients SOA integration based on
state-of-the-art IBM Technology. By employing SOA and BPM (Business Process Management) for
business process automation, all your applications can share data and interact with one another in a
clear and simple architecture where an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), a tool that can communicate
with many applications, is used as the delivery bus standing in the center of all applications allowing
them to share information with one another, along with set of IBM Technology Layers and Gateways
to enable the end-to-end business automation and eServices in a highly secured manner. Here are
description of few products that our consultants mainly use for such integration and automation:
