The approach often results in multiple teams of people implementing and supporting multiple platforms, different architectures, and different technologies. While the approach solves the department's requirements, it does not often promote solving the enterprise's changing business requirements. As economic requirements change, information systems departments must support the evolution of the enterprise by leveraging the investment in existing systems and assimilating new technologies and applications. Today, continued success in business depends on the ability to share information, Application Linking. Application Linking is defined as the uninterrupted flow of information, not constrained by platform, timing, complexity of data formats, or volume. The ability to connect any combination of source and destination formats. All to often, the only solution is the creation of special interface programs, custom code which is expensive to produce and even more expensive to maintain. Application Linking solutions often involve, and sometimes require, a message broker, interface engine, or message oriented middleware. Each messaging system has proprietary methods for message handling, which are independent of the actual application linking requirements. AIC offers an application linking solution to meet the integration requirements from the application perspective, independent of messaging system. AIC's Application Linking solution is based on three major objectives:
