Enterprises may have tens or even hundreds of applications that are custom-built or acquired from third-party suppliers. The applications may operate on multiple OS platforms and can be geographically dispersed. In order to support common business processes and data sharing across the various applications, these applications need to be integrated. Implementation of a service-oriented (SOA) integration platform for control and management of the end-to-end integration is the way how to realize enterprise systems integration (EAI) for middle and large organizations.

Metada Integration Modeler applies model-driven software development approach and enables effective zero-code platform-independent integration modeling. Integration models include service definitions, service interfaces, integration flows, message routing, mapping, and transformations. With no need for programming, the tool generates configurations and/or complete program code for the selected integration/orchestration platform (e.g. BEA AquaLogic Service Bus, BEA Tuxedo, IBM WebSphere).

Metada Integration Modeler is a metadata management, data modeling, transformation and integration toolkit which significantly decreases the time to develop and deploy new integration components while reducing the cost and time associated with ongoing support and maintenance. It is a proven tool for integration analysts that allows full-scale modeling of organization's enterprise service bus (ESB). It is designed for complex, heterogeneous IT environments and enables to build, deploy and manage a network of IT services by providing a complete system of record of services including contracts, implementation artifacts, and dependencies that control their use.
