By adopting a Canonical Data Model large Enterprises and Governmental organizations are aiming to dramatically cut integration development time and costs by moving away from point to point integration. The successful realization of this Canonical Model approach relies on overcoming two key challenges. Firstly, Model Management, being able to collaboratively build, grow and maintain the model and secondly, Model Usage, getting everyone to use the Model. By implementing igniteXML our customers are able to address both of the challenges.
