Application Servers and EAI （By David Linthicum）

Posted: Saturday, July 01, 2000

Abstract:
Application servers are a good fit with EAI because they centrally process information from many different resources, such as databases and applications. They are well suited to support transactional environments and can share logic as well as data. Their invasive approach means deployment costs are high, but they complement other integration approaches and are an important member of the EAI suite.
