Enterprise Integration

Enterprise Integration encompasses a number of technologies and approaches to achieve one aim: to empower a mission critical system or systems with full online capability to deliver user oriented services over the web.

Such projects generally demand a large financial and project resource commitment from the commissioning company or organisation. Equally, there is generally a strong commercial or market imperative to deliver online services.

Integrating major systems of this complexity involves bringing together a range of software development techniques including Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Agile Development as well as performance optimisation, stress testing and security.

One of the critical areas most often overlooked or even sacrificed by IT departments is the quality of user experience.

The objective must be to provide users with a positive experience through intuitive user interfaces that seamlessly and coherently integrate and deliver web services with the back office system.

Without appropriate focus and priority the overall user experience is at high risk of being poorly executed thereby frustrating the user providing a negative experience and undermining the project's business case and rationale.

• Amatica's has extensive experience and track record of delivering such complex projects involving:
• clear statement of requirements
• establishment of client and Amatica project teams
• establishment of common project management communication
• 'opening' the underlying back office system through development of web services
• production of data mapping definitions
• production of online user interface wireframes and behaviour models
• development of web services utility libraries
• unit and system testing
• user acceptance testing
• implementation

Amatica's skills in enterprise system integration set it apart from the vast majority of companies operating within the web technology services arena.
