There is nothing new about the concept of developing methods to accomplish the integration of disparate, stand-alone applications, known as Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), but the means for its implementation continue to evolve. TWC's technical staff are accomplished experts at bringing legacy applications and data together with contemporary, new, or custom applications and data.

ThirdWave develops and implements EAI techniques for both government and large scale business clients, using contemporary technology to improve real-time information flow across the enterprise.

In addition to application adapters for legacy systems, ThirdWave employs middleware technologies, including those from the following common categories:

• Transaction Processing (TP) Monitors
• Remote Procedure Call (RPC) systems
• Database access systems
• Message Passing
