Abstract (2. Language): 
The development in information technologies link the companies to invest more in information systems and applications to gain competitive advantage. Companies prefer ERP systems to integrate their internal business fumctions. Nevertheless the development of technology results the need to integrate other stakeholders to the companies; customers, suppliers, fnancial and governmental institutions. ERP systems show inefficiencies at this point because of the infrastructure diffferences. In recent years according to financial and organizational strategic decisions more joint ventures and company buyings happened in all over the world, e-business (B2B) and e-commerce (B2C) applications are widely used, both of them generate the need of using different information systems together. As a solution the enterprise application integration (EAI) approach is created to realize the mapping of different applications on an independent platform. This ensure the sharing of data and information in different infrastructures Wthout any problem. The objective of this article is to report the development of EAI approach, differences to ERP, implementation methods and process, advantages and risks in EAI projects. This article would also assist the researchers and provide recommendations to EAI project managers or worker
Abstract (Original Language): 
Enformasyon teknolojilerinin hızlı gelişimi doğrultusunda, işletmeler rekabet avanta'ı sağlayabilmek amacıyla enformasyon sistem ve uygulamaları konusundaki yatanlarını hızlandırmışlardır. İşletmeler, işletme içi fonksiyonlar arasında entegrasyonu sağlamak için kurumsal kaynak planlama sistemlerini (enterprise resource planning-ERP) son yıllarda tercih etmektedirler. Ancak teknolojinin de gelişen imkanlarıyla bir süre sonra işletme dışındaki tedarikçi, müşteri, fnans kuruluşlan ve devlet gibi paydaşların işletme ile entegrasyonu gerekli hale gelmiştir. Bu noktada uygulamalar arası altyapı farklılıklar nedeniyle ERP sistemleri yetersiz kalmıştır. Son zamanlarda fnansal ve yönetimsel nedenlerden dolayı artan şirket birleşmeleri ve satınalmalan, e-iş (business-to-business, B2B) ve e-ticaret (e-commerce, B2C) uygulamaları da farklı enformasyon altyapılarının birlikte kullanılması gerekliliğini doğurmuştur. Bu problemlere çözüm olarak geliştirilen kurumsal uygulama entegrasyonu (enterprise application mtegratron-EAT) yaklaşımı farklı sistemleri bağımsız bir platform üzerinden eşleştirme ve bu sayede altyapıdan bağımsız olarak veri ve enformasyon paylaşımı imkanı sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, EAI yaklaşımının gelişimini, ERP ile olan farklılıklarını, uygulama metot ve süreci ile EAI projelerindeki avanta' ve riskleri açıklamaktır. EAI konusunda yapılacak akademik çalışmalara ve işletmelerdeki EAI proje yöneticilerine ve çalışanlarına yardımcı olacak bilgi ve öneriler sunulması hedeflenmektedir
