Companies today are grappling with information management problems on an unprecedented scale. Information has become the most valuable asset and competitive advantage for countless industries. Companies must be agile and effective when deploying applications that leverage corporate information. Yet, most information is currently locked in numerous, disparate data stores. The information is often inaccurate and inconsistent, and can only be used through proprietary access methods.

EII is infrastructure software that provides a "database veneer" that makes disparate data sources appears  as one. EII is the cornerstone of today's more successful enterprise portals and web services. It offers distinguished capability from the traditional EAI, ETL and Content Management solutions. The Enterprise Information Integration market is an emerging market going through exponential growth.
