MindTree’s enterprise application integration methodology is based on the Total Business Integration (TBI) methodology, proposed by the Integration Consortium (IC). The IC is a global body that recommends best practices and processes to be followed during EAI project execution.
TBI itself has been derived from the webMethods GEAR methodology, which consists of best practices, ‘cook books’, white papers, and a detailed approach to implementing EAI projects.
MindTree’s Integration/EAI methodology goes through the following phases:
- Phase 1: Goals - gathering requirements
- Phase 2: Explore - analyzing or exploring design approaches
- Phase 3: Assemble - development
- Phase 4: Rollout - deployment
