ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE

Enterprise Application Integration

This enterprise application integration diagram places CRM, ERP and e-commerce behind application adapters, which connect to an enterprise service bus. The bus exposes managed APIs and also links to a master-data service and audit monitoring. It offers a concise picture of integration responsibilities: applications retain their own roles, while shared routing, information and oversight are made explicit. Add individual interfaces or event topics only when the discussion needs them.
