The breakthrough integration functionality offered by the my-channels technologies Nirvana and Matrix has evolved over the last two years.

The my-channels solution has been developed by a team of recognized EAI experts from the financial services arena.

The driving force behind my-channels was the lack of a complete integration solution. The my-channels team were uniquely positioned to identify the problems and build a comprehensive technology solution that overcame them, one that allows real B2B integration without imposing infrastructure constraints on any of the partners in an integration effort.
