  1. Electronic Data Interchange David Conorozzo Computer Science Department State University of New York at Buffalo

  2. Overall Layout of Presentation • Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) • The future of EDI • My Conclusions • Questions

  3. The Future of EDI • The future looks grim. Alas, every technology must eventually die. • EDI over the internet, thanks to RFC 1865 we can eliminate the VAN • XML as an EDI replacement

  4. Recall… EDI Example EDI Doc Sender Machine VAN EDI Document EDI Document EDI Doc X- Lator Client Machine X- Lator Raw Data Raw Data DB DB

  5. EDI over the Internet Internet Encrypted Sender Machine Could be FTP or E-mail Document Encrypted Doc Encrypted Doc Encr- ypt Client Machine De- crypt XML Document XML Document DB DB X- Lator X- Lator Raw Data Raw Data

  6. Acknowledging a Transmission Probably by E-Mail Internet EDI Doc Sender Machine Functional Acknowledgement (997) EDI Document X- Lator Client Machine X- Lator RFC 1865 - Defines all of this and all options (FTP, E-Mail, Internet VAN) Defines Encryption schemes(RSA, S-MIME), Everything!

  7. XML Solution Today Internet Encrypted Sender Machine Document Encrypted Doc Encrypted Doc Encr- ypt Client Machine De- crypt XML Document XML Document DB DB X- Lator X- Lator Raw Data Raw Data

  8. XML Solution Tomorrow Internet Encrypted Sender Machine Document Request XML Doc Encrypted Doc Encrypted Doc Client Machine Encrypted Doc DB DB

  9. My Conclusions • EDI should and will be eliminated • XML should/will be used sparingly at first • XML needs some more industry standard DTD’s before it will really take hold

  10. Questions Ask your questions now: This is NOT a political statement! It is simply a picture to get the point across, that it is time for questions!
