A growing slice of companies’ IT budgets is going into
integration technology – as opposed to buying shiny new systems.
That’s the finding from our market
research.
But what an area to invest in! It’s highly technical with
buzzwords like service oriented architectures, web services,
.NET, J2EE and COM floating around. And you are meant to invest
in small-scale integration projects to get ‘quick wins’ –
but then still be able to rapidly scale up to enterprise level
to realise the true benefits of all your IT systems talking
to each other.
Our Management Briefing writers try to provide clarity in
the confusion. Ravinder Chauhan
and Roland Spiers explain what
SOAs and web services are all about. Mehran
Nikoo and Stewart Mills concentrate
on squeezing practical results out of the technology.
But for information direct from the horse’s mouth, hear how
Lufthansa Cargo built an entire
IT modernisation programme around integration technology.
