Application integration takes many of the products and technologies we discussed in this chapter to provide a complete integration solution for orchestrating agile, user-centric business processes across your enterprise applications. The products that are bundled with the Oracle SOA Suite are the foundation of Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA), so this Oracle SOA product suite will be discussed first.
Oracle's Application Integration Architecture (AIA) offers pre-built solutions at the data, process, and user interface level, delivering a complete process solution to business end users. All Oracle AIA components are designed to work together in a mix-and-match fashion and are built for easy configuration, ultimately lowering the cost and IT burden of building, extending, and maintaining integrations.
