Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) Vendors Jump on the B2B Bandwagon: The e*EAI StrategyPublished by: TowerGroup Published: Jan. 1, 2000 - 12 Pages Table of ContentsHighlights Vision Introduction Background e*EAI=EAI over the Internet Vendor Focus Conclusion AbstractWe are at the beginning of an Internet revolution in the securities industry, which will be characterized by an explosive growth in Internet-related service offerings. Buy side firms are clamoring to provide customers portfolio performance and account data over the Internet, sell side firms are trying to manage and route orders over the Internet, and custodian banks are focusing on presenting trust and custody data on the Web for clients to view. Securities firms face tremendous challenges, however, in realizing their goals of deploying applications over the Web and achieving enterprise integration over the Web--a goal that we have dubbed e*EAI. The majority of firms are still battling with internal integration issues, have still not adopted Internet-enabling standards like Extensible Markup Language (XML), and do not have the expertise to deploy applications over the Web.But help is on the way. Vendors like NEON and STC are developing e*EAI products that help deploy applications over the Web and integrate these applications with back-office systems. This TowerGroup Research Note describes the major trends in this business, analyzes these vendor's products, and discusses the requirements of an e*EAI solution.
