About Red Hat Application Services
What can you do with middleware?
Middleware is the technological foundation for enterprise application integration. Organizations turn to middleware as a way to keep application development quick and cost-effective in complex IT environments. Middleware can support application environments that work smoothly and consistently across a highly distributed platform.
You can implement middleware to connect your legacy apps to your modern cloud apps, your cloud apps to each other, and anything to everything else. Middleware can help automate business processes and decisions. You can also optimize how your data is stored and retrieved or improve the ways you develop apps.
