Magic Software Enterprises Ltd., a provider of software platforms for enterprise mobility, cloud applications, and business integration, recently announced that its Magic Integration Platform has been selected by Roka Bioscience, a manufacturer of food safety assays. The solution will help Roka Bioscience to connect its Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne ERP with its Agile (News - Alert) PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) and other third-party systems to increase operational efficiencies and compliance.

Magic Integration Platform supports a wide range of business processes and data synchronization scenarios. It features a comprehensive development studio and an unrivalled level of interoperability and connectivity for integrating a wide variety of technologies and standards, including databases, operating systems, Web services, messaging, FTP and directories, .NET (News - Alert), Java, RPG, HTTP, and more.

The solution recently won 2014 Product Innovation Leadership Award. Results were based on Frost & Sullivan (News - Alert)'s independent analysis of integration platforms for business applications. The solution outscored its competitors in each of the following five key criteria Frost & Sullivan analysts use to benchmark performance, earning an average overall score of 9.0 (out of a possible 10), well ahead of the closest competitor which received an average score of 7.6.

"Companies' ERP and PLM systems often contain overlapping data, such as customer and supplier information, item and catalogue numbers, and more. Manually entering and updating information in both systems takes valuable employee time, can introduce costly transcription errors and can lead to systems containing out-of-date information. In addition, companies' actual business processes often span between systems," states Udi Ertel, President, Software Division at Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. "Having achieved Oracle (News - Alert) Validated Integration status for both JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and JD Edwards World, Magic's code-free, metadata-based integration platform provides a quick, reliable and cost-effective way for innovative businesses, such as Roka, to increase efficiencies and differentiation by automating processes between multiple systems."
