EXTOL Business Integrator (EBI)

The EXTOL Business Integrator (EBI) gives you a single, middleware platform you can use to integrate your data and applications without coding. EBI is a learn-once, apply-to-many tool that you can use to build maps, business rules, processes, event triggers, and manage exceptions and alerts.

The EXTOL Business Integrator platform is widely used by companies across multiple industries to introduce new efficiencies to stay competitive. Our power users have been able to virtually eliminate custom coding, so common in integration implementations, and use EXTOL’s products as the hub of their entire IT infrastructure.

The EXTOL Business Integrator (EBI) is a fully integrated, self-contained integration platform that can be installed in minutes and offers the same navigation infrastructure no matter what type of integration process you are building or managing.

It replaces EDI translators, mapping tools, XML integrators, data integration tools, communication gateways, and web services toolkits. With EBI, you can build, test, run, and manage data, application, and cloud integrations – with just one investment in software and skills.
