PRISM-e Enterprise Application Integration System.
Companies today face more complex challenges than ever before. On
the technology front, there is the need to keep pace with the demands
of the Internet-driven economy. Companies know that new initiatives
such as e-Business, CRM, & Business Intelligence go hand in
hand with proven organization wide Enterprise Application Integration
(EAI) strategy. To succeed in the Internet economy, your e-business
must expect change, accept change, and embrace change, but you must
also use change to your advantage. The goal of PRISM-e EAI is to
Integrate and Streamline Business Processes across different applications
and business units across the entire enterprise while allowing employees,
decision-makers, and business partners to readily access corporate
and customer data, no matter where it resides. Increasingly, PRISM-e
EAI involves integrating information and processes across the enterprise
and beyond organizational walls to encompass business-to-business
(B2B) integration.

The total PRISM-e EAI solution simultaneously addresses the integration
issues at several hierarchical levels as seen above.
PRISM-e Application Integration Arbiters
It includes Communication Protocols (TCP/IP) & Routable Protocols
upon which the Internet is based, the Transport Integration layer
also includes messaging middleware that provides interface between
application letting them send the data back and froth asynchronously
using Message Queues & Message Broker. It is the most scalable
and the fastest messaging integration, which provides the whole
system quality of service through, guaranteed delivery, full transactionality
and orderly recovery.
Prism-e
DATA Integration Adaptors
It directly interfaces with the physical application data maintaining
a complete view of customer relationship and operations. The data
integration layer is a critical prerequisite for achieving Enterprise
Integration success at the higher level of Information, Process
and B2B Integration. The Data Integration is done in real time with
cross-platform capabilities, offers features designed specifically
for event based & schedule data integration. This leads to greater
information interoperability across multiple applications.
Prism-e
Connector Integration
The information integration level includes pre-built application
adapters that let core business applications (ERP, Legacy System,
SCM) seamlessly integrate with application that provides connectivity
to the Supplier, Partner & Customer. It rapidly integrates application
and data components to form a fully functional, powerful data rich
infrastructure and seamless corporate IT environment. One can build
new application that reuse components of existing applications while
providing a structured process to deliver data across mixed system
environment. It automatically detects and captures changes in the
application (business events). It delivers unmatched performance
for customers with hundred of application interfaces, each of which
has good throughput. It allows highly complex data transformation
to occur at the hub supporting XML and HTTP Protocols thus ensuring
that e-Business transactions integration with company's core system.
Prism-e
Process Integration
Process Integration layer integrates at all level of layers in the
system. It insures and encompasses a range of solutions that work
together to let manager, analyst & decision makers to directly
define, model, manage, and change processes through graphical interface.
Decision matrixes provide managers with greater control over process
flow by providing graphical tools for setting priorities and evaluating
various process models. Various alerts are provided which notifies
the administrator automatically.
These comprehensive integration services provide the missing link
that unifies e-Business with diverse business processes, applications
and functions so your company can operate at its full potential.
A key offering of PRISM-e EAI enables you to integrate faster and
more efficiently, optimizing your investments to make e-Business
a more powerful component of your overall business. The main Feature
& Benefits of PRISM-e EAI are:

PRISM-e Wireless Enabler
Prism-e provides the infrastructure to deploy an integrated,
mobile business solution that brings together the content users
need, the applications they access, the process they participate
in and the context of their participation, including factors such
as timing, information priority and channel preference. Whether
online or off-line, business interactions are streamlined by opening
up continuous channels for communication.
As and how people and businesses evolve, markets are becoming increasingly
volatile and distributed information from disparate sources adjusts
to the changes in the market faster than ever. Therefore, it becomes
mandatory that people have access to real-time information from
all access points be it a computer or the mobile devices we know
today to optimize decision making. Creating pervasive applications
for mobile devices is a necessity and no longer an option. To make
things worse, mobile applications requires that the application
developer satisfy some pretty demanding requirements.
An enterprise vision is to have access to a comprehensive Wireless
Software Grid that will provide an array of software tools and services,
ready for use with both mobile and non-mobile devices that allow
building applications around it. Also offering a flexible architecture
that allows easy integration with the enterprise framework, which
manages all of its interaction complexities with mobile/non-mobile
devices, other applications, and frameworks.
The PRISM-e technology allows application developers in creating
pervasive applications for mobile devices by employing:
Optimization techniques
It includes data compression at the transport layer to help
minimize the number of bits sent over the wireless link. The PRISM-e
middleware implementations use header compression, in which mechanisms
replace traditional packet headers with a much shorter bit sequence
before transmission.
Intelligent restarts
With wireless networks, a transmission may be cut at midstream due
to interference or operation in fringe areas. An intelligent restart
is a recovery mechanism that detects when a transmission has been
cut. When the connection is reestablished, the PRISM-e middleware
resumes transmission from the break point instead of at the beginning
of the transmission.
Data bundling
The PRISM-e middleware is capable of combining (bundling) smaller
data packets into a single large packet for transmission over the
wireless network. This is especially beneficial to help lower transmission
service costs of wireless WANs. Because most wireless data services
charge users by the packet, data bundling will result in a lower
aggregate cost.
Store-and-forward messaging
PRISM-e performs message queuing to ensure message delivery to users
who may become disconnected from the network for a period of time.
When the station comes back online, PRISM-e sends the stored messages
to the station.
Screen scraping and reshaping
The development environment of some middleware products enables
the developer to use visual tools to "scrape" and "reshape"
portions of existing application screens to more effectively fit
within the smaller display of data collectors using MobileMorph
technology.
