Mercator is the market-leading software designed specifically to embrace diversity and meet the requirements for business integration across both application and enterprise boundaries. Within an EC environment, it provides the traditional functions of earlier-generation EDI translators while meeting the new integration challenges.

Mercator addresses the diverse needs within the context of a new software category known as Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) software. EAI software is the solution for the enterprise whose goal is to exploit the business advantage that comes from the integration of business processes. The best EAI software extends that definition to include processes that cross enterprise as well as application boundaries.

Mercator brings speed and flexibility to the enterprise by supporting the distributed management and maintenance of the EC environment and the distributed processing of EC transactions. Enterprises can customize transaction workflows to match the processing needs of individual business units, without the need for re-engineering of business processes.

Mercator’s graphical data mapping environment provides a cost-effective alternative to writing or generating data conversion and interface programs. It’s capable of processing data of any structure, whether standard or proprietary. It can transform data to and from any source or destination, including flat files, message queues, databases and application buffers, regardless of the data structure.
