What
is EAI : Enterprise Application Integration, or EAI,
is the combination of processes, software, standards, and hardware resulting
in the seamless integration of two or more enterprise systems allowing
them to operate as one.
Although EAI is often associated with integrating systems within a business
entity, EAI may also refer to the integration of enterprise systems of
disparate corporate entities (B2Bi) when the goal is to permit a single
business transaction to occur across multiple systems.

What
i-SuperWiz brings to EAI : Now i-SuperWiz sets the users free from
technical constraints such as computing knowledge, file and directory
management. All the information is available from any computer (depending
on the access rights) either on the company's intranet or from any allowed
extranet workstation (single sign on) . Thus any user can access the database
using an HTTP protocol based program such as a web browser or any other
web resource.
We chose to interface the database with a web server that would host Java
Servlets.
Several applets have been developed in order to improve HTTP client server
communication and to perform some specific tasks like downloading or opening
documents from the database.
Moreover, i-SuperWiz offers an extending set of services and tools
which will help companies managing their information flow as well as sharing
critical data between collaborators, workgroups and branches.i-SuperWiz's
server architecture has been developed so that it is fully and easily
extensible. That means that services list can be increased according to
the needs. Each service is described in a Job class that is accessible
through the applet or any other HTTP program.
