In the beginning of the chapter, we discussed scenarios where there could be a need to integrate certain third-party applications/partner applications to some of the applications that are part of the enterprise. These applications will use diverse data models and may sometimes use totally different data formats for communication. For present-day agile enterprises, it is necessary to use patterns that can interconnect diverse types of applications by converting data from one format to another. This is where the message translator pattern plays a key role. The message translator pattern acts as a special filter between other filters or applications and translates data from one format to another. The diagram depicting the message translator pattern is given as follows:

Overview of this book
Enterprise Architecture (EA) is typically an aggregate of the business, application, data, and infrastructure architectures of any forward-looking enterprise. Due to constant changes and rising complexities in the business and technology landscapes, producing sophisticated architectures is on the rise. Architectural patterns are gaining a lot of attention these days.
The book is divided in three modules. You'll learn about the patterns associated with object-oriented, component-based, client-server, and cloud architectures. The second module covers Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) patterns and how they are architected using various tools and patterns. You will come across patterns for Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), Resource-Oriented Architecture (ROA), big data analytics architecture, and Microservices Architecture (MSA). The final module talks about advanced topics such as Docker containers, high performance, and reliable application architectures. The key takeaways include understanding what architectures are, why they're used, and how and where architecture, design, and integration patterns are being leveraged to build better and bigger systems.
