Sonic Collaboration Server™

Integrating OpenEdge applications with strategic business partners using B2B protocols and Web services

Both Application Partners and enterprise IT can successfully manage partner integrations by relying on the Sonic Collaboration Server™ to integrate OpenEdge applications with new partners-and change interactions with existing partners-without disrupting existing operations. The Sonic Collaboration Server enables flexible, secure, and scalable integration with external applications so the enterprise can increase operational efficiency, streamline development efforts, extend the useful life of existing applications, and develop tighter working relationships with suppliers, customers, and partners. Sonic Collaboration Server extends the capabilities of Sonic ESB to integrate Progress business partners using B2B protocols and Web services standards. Sonic Collaboration Server makes it easy to integrate with new partners - and change interactions with existing partners - without disrupting running operations

Sonic Collaboration Server provides an intuitive graphical environment to model the process which fulfills a business' relationship with partners. ESB-enabled, the Sonic Collaboration Server can incorporate any ESB service or process in a B2B interaction.

Sonic Collaboration Server leverages OpenEdge and Sonic ESB to make partner collaborations available for configured integration with the rest of the company's service-oriented architecture.
