His Integration perspective


The RPG Dude

He is under pressure…

So many app to maintain and to develop…

Terminals, mobile devices… Printing…5250… GUI…Different environments…


The RPG Dude

Remember his boss?


The RPG Dude

His customer?…


The RPG Dude

Here is one of his end-users…


The RPG Dude

For our dude, Integration is all about putting together different development environments…

What are the fundamental points ?


The RPG Dude – the fundamentals for integration

• Deploy a multi-tier architecture

• Use open standard and protocol between environments

• Avoid using the “lowest” common denominator


The RPG Dude

But this is not an easy task… Our dude tries hard many ways…


The RPG Dude

Results are not what he was expecting…

The pressure increases…


The RPG Dude

Must our dude end up like a bunny ?


The RPG Dude

An abandoned bunny ?…


The RPG Dude

Exiled to Trojan ?


The RPG Dude

That cannot be it…

A solution HAS TO EXIST !


The RPG Dude

A new solution ?A new paradigm ?

• Not with the lowest common denominator but the highest denominator of each environment.

• Open standards are used to insure integrity today and in the future.
