Composite Application
A composite application coordinates independently developed programs, data and devices so that together they can provide new solutions that the individual applications could not deliver on their own. The key is the combination of resources that leads to new insights.
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Composite Application
SMBs benefit from the composite application because it is more efficient. The user does not waste time switching between applications. Instead, multiple apps are available in the same place. And composite applications are flexible. Users can add or subtract features as needed. This means that a company with limited staff can use fewer employee hours to achieve its goals by customizing these applications.
