Proteans recognizes that Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) continues to be a top strategic priority for CIOs - and an enterprise-wide challenge for organizations. That is because, for many companies:

In any decision on EAI strategy - including vendor selection - companies must also consider emerging standards such Web services. As Web services-based solutions mature, CIO's will inevitably turn their attention to ensuring interoperability between emerging Web services solutions and existing EAI solutions.

We help clients in EAI implementation through BizTalk Server and Web Services. We assist with semantic and structural mapping of customers' metadata and implement custom adapters.

Messaging & Collaboration Solution

For large-scale messaging, no platform has received higher marks for total cost of ownership than Microsoft Exchange. In addition to streamlining management, Exchange provides organizations with a unified messaging environment that can be readily extended to include mobile solutions and can be integrated with common desktop applications.

The importance of e-mail means it has become a high priority for the IT department. In the rush to deliver mail quickly, however, CIOs have simply been too busy to deploy and use their enterprise messaging suites' more advanced functions such as workflow and collaboration tools.

These functions have the potential to deliver competitive advantage, but often cannot be effectively implemented due to unreliable infrastructure that supports messaging applications. By assessing and reconsidering this infrastructure, businesses can identify opportunities for changes that will allow them to realize the full value of their investments.

And, by choosing a messaging solution known for scalability and reliability, companies can lower the associated management costs. Few messaging product offer the features, functions, and value of Exchange, and few technology integrators offer the breadth and depth of expertise of Proteans.

Enterprise Portals

Companies have plenty of portal products to choose from in today's marketplace. However, few meet the specific demands of their organization. For many companies, building an enterprise portal using Microsoft Sharepoint Portal Server is an effective option. Proteans has extensive experience integrating Sharepoint within the enterprise to ensure a reliable, secure, and tailored solution.
