oracle aia,[zz] What Are Oracle AIA, PIP and How Do They Work?

AIA stands for “Application Integration Architecture”

PIP stands

for “Process Integration Packs”

Basically, AIA (Application Integration Architecture) is a business process

platform. based on standards, which supports pre-built but modifiable process

flows across existing Oracle applications and third-party services at the data,

process, and user interface level.

AIA’s pre-built orchestrations or integration processes are required that

layer across existing applications. These need to be made up of common

processes, objects, and services. Oracle has also defined a number of enterprise

business objects based on the business documents from Open Application Group. In

addition, processes can also include services that have not been developed by

Oracle and are application independent.

PIP (Process Integration Packs) is part of the AIA platform. Oracle use PIPs

to deliver both horizontal and industry-specific pre-built, pre-integrated

business flows packs that flows across the company’s diverse pplication

portfolio. PIPs use Oracle Fusion Middleware SOA Suite as the foundation and is

able to enable quick and relatively simple implementation by customers.

Some example PIPs are:

for Oracle E-Business Suite.
