    1. ECGridOS™

    ECGridOS is the only programmable EDI network interface: The EDI Communications industry has become stagnant, settling on FTP and As2 communications protocols that do not integrate with code, GUI, or runtime libraries. The ECGridOS API creates autonomous, peer level EDI Network connections, rather than just offering mailboxes – VAN Mailboxes are dead end containers for EDI client data. ECGridOS provides the entire VAN functions repertoire that OEMs and Cloud B2B systems can consume and deploy to create as yet und of new EDI applications.

    The next B2B revolution will combine the best of traditional EDI with advanced cloud applications and new communications platforms (Twitter, LinkedIn, Salesforce, NetSuite, Boomi, and other Enterprise 2.0 systems).

    Fact: the majority of messaging failures occur within an FTP or AS2 session; why? Answer: These protocols are not deeply integrated into platform logic, whereas API based systems can offer deep integration and control over transactions, offering easy automated recovery from inter-process failures. If there was no API, there would be nothing new in the EDI.

    The ECGridOS Web Services API, is proven, IDE Compatible (Visual Studio and Eclipse), and language Independent.
