Critical Asset Integration
Integrate Your Current IT Systems into a Flexible Solution
The Challenges:
Do your integration needs span hundreds of applications? Probably, if you have highly specialized applications that run on proprietary hardware that is not serviced by modern languages and development environments, such as Java. Today, manufacturing floors commonly have hundreds of applications, many written in C++ and integrated through a CORBA backbone.
It is too costly to rip and replace these proven systems. So how do you modernize and extend these systems so they can participate in new business processes? How do you deliver new applications and services faster than your complex, heterogeneous IT environment allows?
The Solution:
The Progress Critical Business Asset Integration solutions, powered by Sonic ESB extends the value of your existing investments by allowing your existing systems to interoperate with popular integration technologies and protocols so you can quickly react as your business changes.
The solution has flexible deployment options and a technology‐neutral approach that can accommodate the most complex infrastructures, so you can maximize their return from both past and future investments.
Progress offers solutions for both C++ and CORBA environments:
- Progress C++ Integration provides standards‐based interoperability between your existing C++ applications and other languages, such as JAVA or .NET.
- Progress CORBA Modernization provides standards‐based interoperability between your existing CORBA applications and other languages and middleware.
In both situations, this is achieved without disrupting your existing complex business logic, so you can quickly react to market demands while preserving the value in your investments.
