Abstract
Whether application integration is internal to the enterprise or takes the form of external Business-to-Business (B2B) automation, the main integration challenge is similar – how to ensure that the integration solution has the quality of adaptiveness (i.e. it is understandable, maintainable, and scalable)? This question is hard enough for stand-alone application developments, let alone integration developments in which the developers may have little control over participating applications. This paper identifies main strategic (architectural), tactical (engineering), and operational (managerial) imperatives for buil-ding adaptiveness into solutions resulting from integration projects.
