The End of EAI?

This paper includes two points that seem worthy of deeper consideration

"A new series of open standards have been evolved with the help of both commercial and significant developer community input, heavily influenced by the success of the open-source funding model that brought us Linux."

The MyST platform is about leveraging open standards as much as is it about new and innovative methodologies for rapidly creating integrated IT solutions. We use the term 'platform' to describe the clean separations between presentation layers (model, style, scheme), business logic, and persistence.

"A new breed of agile and business savvy technology companies that have invested wisely to create products based on open standards, without the bloated corporate overheads of existing massively staffed proprietary EAI providers."

To add clarity to our own business model, MyST and MySmartChannels are designed as a federation of platform services that provide great agility. In this loosely-coupled architecture, MyST applications are readily available to augment and support existing [bloated] systems to meet shifting requirements and demands.
