Application Integration Architecture
 | Template:Wikify is deprecated. Please use a more specific cleanup template as listed in the documentation. |
In computing, Application Integration Architecture (AIA) is an integration framework produced by Oracle Corporation.
Standards-based, AIA has pre-built common object definitions and services. Oracle AIA is built on Oracle Fusion Middleware's market leading SOA and BPM products.
AIA provides a foundation on which to build business-process flows. AIA delivers Pre-built Integrations as either Direct Integrations (DIs) or Process Integration Packs (PIPs).
- Direct Integrations (DIs): Pre-built integrations that manage data flows and data synchronizations between Applications.
- Process Integration Packs (PIPs): Help optimize processes; they are pre-built composite business processes across enterprise Applications. They allow companies to get up and running with core processes quickly. AIA and PIPs decrease software development time. PIPs operate both horizontally and vertically. Vertical PIPs cater to industries like telecoms, retail, and banking/insurance.
