As part of the above mention contract, it was determined that eOube MI, TM and B1 would be used in order to orchestrate the extraction, transformation/translations.

migration/loading, scheduling, delta migrations and verification for the overall migration. It has a Business Process Modeler (BPMJ graphical interface that builds the migration or interface process (similar look to a flowchart) to allow for easier maintenance and understanding of the process versus parsing through code. eOube allows processes to be created in modular (sub process) form to allow for easier implementation, and eOube supports creation of boundary layers which help define the often overlooked ability to recover quickly in case of issues that require rollback.
