Tigroup understands the drivers for Enterprise Application Integration (EAI): corporations can realize competitive advantages from application and data interconnectivity. Tigroup's business analysts, architects, and developers can bridge the business and technical gaps inherent in any EAI project.

Tigroup's EAI experience spans technologies: Microsoft/COM/COM+ and Java/CORBA, XML, SOAP, mainframe systems, custom developed applications, and third-party applications. Our strength is leveraging existing toolsets to speed delivery of application and data connectivity, and our philosophy is to develop open, reusable solutions.

Reusable Legacy Connections

Most corporations have data and processes that are isolated in legacy systems. The lack of streamlined information flow to and from these systems can hamper a company's ability to understand critical business data and cross-correlations between other business areas.

Tigroup has implemented reusable interfaces based on World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards such as XML and SOAP. The use of Java, JNDI, LDAP, and other de-facto standard technologies ensures portability across platforms and operating systems.

These reusable interfaces are not limited to a single system-to-system connection. Instead, these interfaces may be used by any other system within the organization or even outside of the organization. These 'Web Services' provide a common language for the exchange of information and processing between systems.

System-to-System Data Movement

Mission critical applications often involve the movement and analysis of data on a set schedule (batches) or in real time. Often batch schedules are not driven by business requirements but are instead dictated by the speed of the systems and applications used for data movement and analysis. Real-time systems require streamlined connectivity that is available 24/7. Each of these requirements presents challenges for integration teams, and the best path to success may not be clear.

Tigroup uses commercial software and custom built software to deliver solutions that result in measurable ROI. Tigroup objectively evaluates the business requirements, independent from any preconceived solution, and recommends the best approach to resolving the issue. Tools that we recommend have proven themselves in real-world implementations.
