Helping reduce IT complexity and cost
Many companies looking to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of business units turn to Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). The right enterprise integration services and solutions can improve business processes, information flow, and data quality.
Legacy applications, architecture choices
Some of your complexity may come from legacy applications or environments which are difficult to integrate into newer Web-based environments. Maybe you can't find the application source code. Maybe the older technologies aren't supported anymore. Or maybe you'd like to do just enough integrating and put Web browser interfaces on mainframe-based applications. HP Services software professionals can help.
Or perhaps you face challenges in determining how best to architect an integration solution. Are you still doing EDI with your partners and want to automate that more fully? Are you contemplating a message bus structure but can't write all the needed adapters or business process templates? Would you consider queuing mechanisms if you could be assured of good performance? These issues are familiar to our software architects and developers. We deal with them daily and can work with you to pick the right path.
Web services and other common ISV technologies
Today, Web services - including .NET-based technologies from Microsoft and J2EE-based technologies from BEA and IONA - are becoming an important part of the enterprise integration process. HP Services partners with leading Web services technology providers to deliver a common set of solutions and services supported by a consistent delivery methodology.
Many customers also grapple with the role of popular ISVs such as HP with OpenView, IBM with MQSeries, Tibco, and webmethods, as well as BEA and Microsoft. These technologies almost always play an important role in your EAI effort. We have certified software professionals in all these products and more. And we've built value-add on top of many of these environments - all to provide you with a lower risk solution and a faster time to ROI.
