Axway Integrator Flexible integration for modern and dynamic infrastructures
A modern data exchange and integration infrastructure needs to be nimble and flexible enough to quickly accommodate changing partner requirements, emerging government regulations and compliance mandates, and new market conditions including globalization and supplier community automation. While organizations typically use several systems to support multiple document standards and protocols, as well as a large number of systems and data formats, the result is often higher maintenance costs, increased complexity, and loss of control due to a lack of integration. Multiple systems and solution redundancy can also lead to decreased efficiencies, higher security risks and loss of data integrity.
Axway Integrator helps IT organizations to build, manage and optimize integration platforms that solve these challenges. In addition, Axway Integrator provides a logical central point through which data flows are integrated, secured, controlled and monitored. Axway Integrator makes it easy to add and change systems and data, and provides end-to-end visibility into infrastructures and data flows.

Build, Manage and Optimize Integration Platforms
When disparate systems are integrated in a disorganized manner, and without
following a structured Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) strategy, the number of point-to-point connections grows quickly and becomes unmanageable. The result is a complex structure of application dependencies that is difficult to maintain and impossible to expand to meet new business demands.
Axway Integrator unites multiple incompatible systems, data formats and protocols to effectively handle all transactions with suppliers, customers, and other trading partners. This simplifies the corporate application landscape, reduces cost, and diminishes operational and compliance risk.

Core Functionality System Specifications
Axway Integrator manages simple and complex integration processes, and helps IT Operating systems and environments organizations to design, execute, and monitor integration processes that include Java 7 transformation of content, protocol mediation and the ability to support files of any Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 size, messages and APIs. It can rapidly adapt to any file type in any format, new Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 data being incorporated from inside and outside the organization, and industry- and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 company-specific regulations and requirements. Using Axway Integrator, real-time, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 scalable core processing services for quick data integration can be designed and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 implemented as complex processes regardless of the data source. Sun Solaris 10 Sun Solaris 11 Message Services IBM AIX 5L 6.1 IBM AIX 5L 7.1 Axway Integrator supports the following typical message handling services: HP-UX 11iV2 (11.23) HP-UX 11iV3 (11.31) Integration with back-end applications regardless of type or origin Direct connectivity using standard protocols (FTP, HTTP, etc.) Databases Classification, including the determination and details of the data being Axway Database 4.4, 4.6 processed, using standards such as XML, X12 or any custom parameters. This IBM DB2 9.7 guides the action that needs to be applied.

To build complex interactions and integrations, you can:
Define the integration process and execution steps between partners,
applications or systems. Messaging services may be applied at any step, and tasked to perform additional processing of the exchanged data. Using Axway ProcessManager, facilitate the orchestration process for proper execution of automated and human interactions with these activities over time.
