Infor Delivers Choice and Control with SOA for Enterprising Companies

▤ Summary

By remaining platform-independent, Infor Open SOA facilitates interoperability between different enterprise systems and prevents the need to “rip-and-replace” to support the requirements of a proprietary middleware stack.Through Infor Open SOA, customers will have the freedom and flexibility to mix and match business processes to meet their needs, delivered on the technology platform of their choice.Through a publish and subscribe model, business events are exchanged asynchronously between applications and services across the standards-based Infor Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), in accordance with event orchestration modeling specific to industry and customer-specific business processes.Instead of forcing customers into a vendor-focused ecosystem, Infor’s event-driven SOA architecture allows customers to create their own ecosystem, deploying software components from Infor, in-house, and third-party sources.It is governed by an independent standards body and available without royalty or licensing fees.Strategic DirectionInfor is delivering Open SOA in phases as non-disruptive, incremental updates with regular product release plans.Infor will provide more detailed product roadmaps to its customers leading up to its annual user conference, Inforum, to be held Sep. 9-12, 2007 in Las Vegas.About InforInfor delivers business specific software to enterprising organizations.
