Every business is made up of a complex mix of off-the-shelf and custom applications, databases and network technologies. The integration of these disparate systems requires that their data formats be translated into a common format that can be understood by the other components of the integrated system.

TIBCO Adapter software enables packaged applications, databases and networking technologies to become active participants in the enterprise information flow. Adapters provide a configuration-based approach to integration, providing simple, automated mapping of incompatible technologies and data formats.
