FRAMEWORK FOR INTEGRATING EXISTING AND NEW INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS AND SYSTEMS

摘要

A framework and method for using the framework are disclosed for integrating disparate components (414, 416), such as existing and new components, on a computing network system (402). The existing network may include useful existing content repositories (408), such as data repositories, and existing computer architectures (404). With the addition of new systems on the network, the framework can aid an architect in choosing a framework integration layer (204) that allows for the integration of the disparate components.
