EDI over the internet

EDI over the internet
EDI traditionally has been used by large organizations that can afford to spend huge amount of money on converters as well as maintaining private point-to-point networks for security and reliability reasons. This was an unthinkable proposition for the small and medium sized enterprises. The advent of Internet has brightened the possibility of doing online transactions by these small and medium enterprises, but with the compromise on security. Ensuring the flow of EDI data transfer over the Internet in a secure manner is the objective of EDIINT.
EDIINT solution helps to level the playing field for SMEs by providing a solution that allows these companies to do business with larger organizations and, at the same time, enjoy the cost savings, speed and other benefits of e-Commerce.
EDI over the Internet (EDIINT) is a working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) that is chartered with creating specifications for transporting EDI or XML documents over the Internet in a secure (digitally signed and encrypted), highly reliable manner.
