Getting very different computer systems from multiple vendors whether on desktops, servers, or mainframes to share data and processing power is one goal of Enterprise Application Integration (EAI)
During the 1990s, companies bought packaged software solutions such as SAP, Oracle ERP, PeopleSoft, JDEdwards, Siebel, Clarify, and so on. Although such packaged software solutions worked well individually, they created information islands. In most cases, each system produced redundant information (like customer information). As a result, when common data changed, employees manually updated the associated information in each system, a process that quickly becames cumbersome. Eventually, some of the data across systems became inconsistent. When people noticed the resulting double data entry, inconsistent data, and data isolation problems, they decided to find ways to integrate the systems. From that search, enterprise application integration (EAI) was born.
