Types of EAI Approaches

As your text explains, there are four different approaches to systems integration: data, application interface, method, and user interface. Each approach has its benefits and drawbacks. In this assignment, you will evaluate each of the four approaches to determine its most appropriate application.

In a 2-3 page paper, compare and contrast the benefits and drawbacks of each of the four different EAI approaches defined in the course text. Provide a scenario in which each type would be the most appropriate integration approach. Also note for each scenario what might be the risks or drawback for your choice. Provide the rationale for your choice of the integration approach in each scenario, supported by your readings and any additional research.
