Glossary
- end point solution
- A software application or device incapable of serving as a router of information in a business process processing chain and commonly using a data format that is incompatible with other applications, requiring application-level interoperability to the extent interoperability can be achieved. If an end point solution's data is stored in formats that are incompatible with applications capable of functioning as a router of information, such data is said to be stored in a data silo. End point solutions were common before the advent of ubiquitous networking but are increasingly being obsoleted by router-capable software. See also: business process, router of information
