 ====== Enterprise Application Integration ======
+^ **Course Title: Enterprise Application Integration** ^^
+| Description                      | Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) brings together different functions—such as Marketing, finance, accounting, human resources, procurement, supply chain management, manufacturing, sales, inventory management, and purchasing—into one central system, allowing departments to share information and work more efficiently. Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) refers to the process of connecting and coordinating different software applications and systems within an organization. Its purpose is to enable smooth communication and efficient data exchange across various platforms. EAI seeks to unify distinct systems such as CRM, ERP, HRM, and others, allowing them to operate collaboratively and effectively. This integration enhances operational efficiency, ensures data consistency, and supports better decision-making across the enterprise. Typically, EAI solutions make use of middleware technologies to streamline and manage the flow of information between diverse applications.            |
