Home:Company:Press Releases:October 29, 2007 DataDirect Technologies Presents EDI and Flat Files in an XML WorldXML Experts Explore the Challenges of EDI and Flat File Integration with Modern Applications During ebizQ Webinar BEDFORD, Mass. – Oct. 29, 2007 What:Web integration has changed how suppliers and partners exchange information. Traditionally, supply-chain partners have used expensive, proprietary software and networks to engage in B2B commerce. Often, only larger suppliers and partners could afford to implement EDI due to the expensive cost-per-message transaction fees. The Internet has ushered in a new age for EDI - one where EDI is used in conjunction with the Web to transact business. The Internet, standards, and new technologies have reduced the transaction cost and partner on-boarding time. But even with the new standards that have emerged around XML, manipulation of XML documents still proves difficult. This Webinar entitled: Exploiting EDI and Flat files in an XML World will focus on how to modernize an EDI infrastructure and exploit XML technologies. Key topics to be addressed include:
