Description:

“The book’s use of real-world case study vignettes really does go to the heart of the subject matter. This stuff is real, it has real applicability to real problems, and, as with most things in life, it shows how it all comes down to real money in the final analysis. This book shows you what your peers are doing to drive costs out of integration projects and to build new applications without re-inventing the entire wheel—just a few new spokes and off you go. This is a good book. Read it.”

     —Peter Rhys Jenkins, Complex Systems Architect, Candle Corporation

“When you get two long-term, acknowledged experts on integration and interoperability together to lay out the current state of the IT universe you expect an immediate return on investment—and this book delivers. It’s common knowledge that 90% of total software lifecycle cost is in maintenance and integration, and that needs to drive IT decision-making. With comprehensive coverage of the integration technology landscape, and clear case studies presented at every turn, this book belongs on every IT manager’s, every system architect’s, and every software developer’s bookshelf.”

     —Richard Mark Soley, chairman and CEO, Object Management Group

“Today’s myriad of integration technologies and alternatives can be daunting. This book presents a framework and process for the evaluation, design, and selection of the appropriate integration technologies to meet your strategic business needs. You will find the templates a particularly useful mechanism to jump-start documentation and drive your decision-making process.”

     —Ron Zahavi, CIO, Global Business Transformation, Unisys Global Transformation Team; author of Enterprise Application Integration with CORBA

“It is refreshing to read a book that presents a good business approach to the integration challenge facing most business leaders today, while at the same time educating them about the major components of the required technologies and management practices changes required. The narrative, examples, and templates establish a common reference point between the business and the technology organizations. A must-read for senior business leaders challenged with the complexities of business integration, as well as Senior IT Leaders challenged with shrinking budgets and lower tolerances for failures.”

     —Chuck Papageorgiou, managing partner, Ideasphere

“Integration has, and will continue to be, one of the success indicators of any enterprise project. Failing to understand the nuances of integration is a critical mistake managers cannot afford to make.”

     —Marcia Robinson, author of Services Blueprint: Roadmap for Execution

“A much-needed book; it ties together the business and technology aspects of information system implementation, emphasizing best practices for really getting things done. I believe that both the technical and business communities will benefit from the in-depth material provided in this book.”

     —Dr. Barry Horowitz, professor of systems and information engineering, University of Virginia (former CEO, Mitre Corporation)

Integration of applications, information, and business process has become today’s #1 IT investment priority. Most enterprise integration books simply explain the technology. This one shows exactly how to apply it. It’s a step-by-step roadmap for your entire project—from the earliest exploratory stages through analysis, design, architecture, and implementation.

Renowned enterprise integration experts Beth Gold-Bernstein and William Ruh present best practices and case studies that bring their methodology to life. They address every stage from the decision-maker’s and implementer’s point of view—showing how to align business requirements to specific solutions, systematically reduce risk, and maximize ROI throughout the entire lifecycle. Coverage includes:

  • Supporting strategies, tactics, and business planning: enterprise integration from the business perspective
  • Defining realistic project success indicators and metrics
  • Establishing integration architectures: supporting near-term needs while building reusable infrastructure services for the long-term
  • Adopting metadata architecture and standards
  • Implementing four essential implementation patterns: application, information, composite, and process integration
  • Understanding service integration and implementing service-oriented architectures
  • Providing organizational structure and governance to support effective integration

The authors provide detailed plans and specification templates for application integration projects—both in the book and on the CD-ROM. These projects include identifying business drivers and requirements; establishing strategy; and integrating services, information, process, and applications.

Enterprise Integration was written for every member of the integration team: business and IT leaders, strategists, architects, project managers, and technical staff. Regardless of your role, you’ll discover where you fit, what to do, and how to drive maximum business value from your next integration project.

**描述：**
「這本書使用真實案例研究的短篇故事，真正觸及了主題的核心。這些內容是真實的，對於實際問題具有真實的適用性，並且，與生活中的大多數事情一樣，最終分析都會回到真實的金錢上。這本書展示了你的同行們如何在整合專案中降低成本，並在不重新發明整個輪子的情況下構建新應用程式——只需幾根新輻條，你就可以開始了。這是一本好書。讀一讀。」
     —彼得·瑞斯·詹金斯，複雜系統架構師，Candle Corporation

「當你把兩位長期被認可的整合和互操作性專家聚在一起，來闡述IT宇宙的當前狀態時，你期待立即的投資回報——而這本書正是如此。眾所周知，90%的軟體生命週期總成本都在於維護和整合，這需要驅動IT決策。這本書全面涵蓋了整合技術的全景，並在每個轉折處提供清晰的案例研究，應該放在每位IT經理、每位系統架構師和每位軟體開發者的書架上。」
     —理查德·馬克·索利，主席兼首席執行官，物件管理集團

「當今眾多的整合技術和替代方案可能令人畏懼。這本書提供了一個框架和過程，用於評估、設計和選擇適合滿足你戰略商業需求的整合技術。你會發現這些模板是一個特別有用的機制，可以啟動文檔並推動你的決策過程。」
     —羅恩·扎哈維，首席資訊官，全球商業轉型，Unisys全球轉型團隊；《使用CORBA的企業應用整合》一書的作者

「閱讀這本書令人耳目一新，它提供了一種良好的商業方法來應對當今大多數商業領導者面臨的整合挑戰，同時教育他們有關所需技術和管理實踐變更的主要組成部分。敘述、範例和模板在商業和技術組織之間建立了共同的參考點。對於面臨商業整合複雜性的高層商業領導者，以及面臨預算縮減和對失敗容忍度降低的高層IT領導者來說，這是一本必讀之作。」
     —查克·帕帕吉奧里烏，管理合夥人，Ideasphere

「整合一直是任何企業專案的成功指標，並將繼續如此。未能理解整合的細微差別是管理者無法承受的重大錯誤。」
     —瑪西亞·羅賓遜，《服務藍圖：執行路線圖》一書的作者

「這是一本急需的書；它將資訊系統實施的商業和技術方面結合在一起，強調最佳實踐以真正完成任務。我相信技術和商業社群都將從這本書提供的深入材料中受益。」
     —巴里·霍洛維茨博士，維吉尼亞大學系統與資訊工程教授（前Mitre Corporation首席執行官）

應用程式、資訊和商業流程的整合已成為當今的首要IT投資優先事項。大多數企業整合書籍僅僅解釋技術，而這本書則清楚地展示了如何應用它。這是你整個專案的逐步路線圖——從最早的探索階段到分析、設計、架構和實施。

知名的企業整合專家貝絲·戈德-伯恩斯坦和威廉·魯赫展示了最佳實踐和案例研究，使他們的方法論生動起來。他們從決策者和實施者的角度處理每個階段——展示如何將商業需求與具體解決方案對齊，系統性地降低風險，並在整個生命週期中最大化投資回報。內容包括：
- 支持策略、戰術和商業規劃：從商業角度看企業整合
- 定義現實的專案成功指標和度量
- 建立整合架構：支持短期需求，同時為長期構建可重用的基礎設施服務
- 採用元數據架構和標準
- 實施四種基本實施模式：應用程式、資訊、組合和流程整合
- 理解服務整合並實施面向服務的架構
- 提供組織結構和治理以支持有效整合

作者提供了應用程式整合專案的詳細計劃和規範模板——書中和CD-ROM上均有。這些專案包括識別商業驅動因素和需求；建立策略；以及整合服務、資訊、流程和應用程式。

《企業整合》是為整合團隊的每位成員撰寫的：商業和IT領導者、策略家、架構師、專案經理和技術人員。無論你的角色是什麼，你都會發現你的位置、該做什麼，以及如何從下一個整合專案中獲得最大的商業價值。
