Europe-wide application integration

As Europe becomes increasingly unified, public-safety agencies are cooperating more closely – at both national and international level. But to collaborate smoothly, they have to integrate heterogeneous ITIT (= Information Technology)

Information Technology (IT) is a collective term for information and data processing and the hardware and software used for this purpose. 

applications. T-Systems offers a solution that does just that.

From data on criminal suspects to digital fingerprints, and from information on disasters to indications of crimes: The facts and figures public-safety agencies collect and evaluate often come from a variety of systems. Depending on the task at hand, these organizations may have to access information from various regional and national authorities, and from their counterparts at European level – while ensuring compliance with stringent data-protectionData protection

and -security requirements. But individual agencies deploy very different systems and apps, sometimes with widely divergent technology. And this poses major challenges. That’s where Enterprise Application Integration ( EAIEAI (= Enterprise Application Integration)

) comes in: EAI leaves the actual applications unchanged, but makes their data available to other software and its users.

T-Systems offers an EAI solution tailored to the particular needs of national and European public-safety agencies. The Interface Manager delivers adapters and specialized modules that support key security standards, enabling organizations to quickly and securely call up information from external sources. What’s more, the solution allows agencies to grant specific partners controlled access to selected information.
