How does Aras Innovator typically integrate with standard EAI?

To answer the question about EAI frameworks (such as Microsoft BizTalk or Sonic), we have to focus on the XML and Web Services. Innovator works very well in frameworks that are based on Web Services. Innovator server is a Web Service (wsdl available) and all the data and transactions are available as XML / SOAP requests. When the Innovator server is using federation, it is most convenient for the server to send a web service request to an external WSDL, and the data that is returned is normally XML that Aras Innovator can XSLT into Innovator tags. Most of our customers are using the Web Services techniques to make connection between Innovator and one other 3rd party system. In this case the field mapping is typically done in either Method code or a XSLT style sheet. Either case, you are basically building a static map between the systems. If an EAI is used, the customer will build a bridge from Innovator to the EAI (such as BizTalk) and then normally use the graphical tool
