EME’s Business Document Processor (BDP) extends messaging to business usersMay 6 2008

This is the first of a series of posts on enhancements BIT has made to EME, our enterprise messaging engine, for the upcoming release of EME 3.0. This post is on the features and functionality we have added to the part of EME that manages the actual business documents that are sent and received between an enterprise and their suppliers, customers, and service providers.

Business Integration Technology’s customers believe an enterprise messaging engine needs to do more than transmit and transform messages.  It needs to extend business processes to suppliers, customers, and service providers. And it needs to make those business processes accessible to real business users - with the tools they need to ensure they get the real business benefits of B2B integration.

For EME 3.0, BDP stores and displays business documents as before. But now users can use user-friendly filters to retreive just the documents they want. They can view the document as a business document - suitable for use by business users -  print it, forward it and save it to a file. An ‘action icon’ lets a user see details about sender, receiver, transaction type, message transmission and acknowledgement. Using BIT’s “Business Process Intelligence,” another action icon lets the user can see all the related business documents in the business process. And since B2B integration involves real-world challenges of trading partner systems unavailabilty, action icons let BDP users retry message

New Case Study - Novus Europe Logistics B2B IntegrationApril 29 2008

BIT and Novus International have just released our Novus Case Study that demonstrates the business value of a B2B integration solution for outbound logistics. This case study may be more interesting than most because of what it is not about. The solution BIT implemented for Novus does not include:

• Software that requires a license fee
• A hosted service with a transaction fee
• Use of an industry exchange or messaging hub
• A focus on technology

It does include:

• Leveraging open source software
• Enabling trading partners with little or no investment in messaging infrastructure
• A win-win approach for both sides of the business relationship
• Industry standards for messaging and for technical architecture
• A focus on business benefits and how to achieve them

BIT’s Third AnniversaryApril 7 2008

Business Integration Technology has now been open for business for three years and I wanted to share some highlights from our third year in operation. BIT had a good year and we significantly increased our revenue and earnings. Like our first two years we’ve been very busy. Here’s an outline of our accomplishments this year:

Projects

• The most important milestone reached by BIT in our third year was the successful implementation of a supply chain integration solution for the animal health and nutrition manufacturing industry. Working with a major manufacturer’s European logistics operation, BIT has implemented the CIDX electronic data exchange for collaborative business processes in our new EME-CIDX. We have also provided the enterprise applications integration and several lightweight versions of EME-CIDX for trading partners.
• BIT has successfully integrated with the Qualcomm Web services for location events (Event Subscription Services) and custom macros (Text and Macro Message Integration).
• In November 2007, BIT was pleased to announce our new Protocol Proxy server software. Protocol Proxy is a lightweight replacement to standard protocol services (FTP, SFTP, HTTP, HTTPS) that is deployable in the DMZ.
