A framework, architecture, system and method are provided for reducing business
transaction latencies thereby enabling an enterprise to run as a zero latency enterprise
(ZLE). The present invention enables the enterprise to integrate its services,
applications and data in real time. An enterprise running as a ZLE has a uniform
global view of its past and current business transactions, including its customer
interactions, internal business operations, supply chain management and more; and
this uniform global view can be obtained from anywhere across the enterprise and
be used for real-time decision making. Namely, an enterprise equipped to run as
a ZLE is capable of integrating, in real time, its enterprise-wide data, applications,
business transactions, operations and values. Consequently, an enterprise conducting
its business as a ZLE exhibits superior management of its resources, operations
and customer care.
