There is typicallythree reasonsin using application integration tools over using APIs:

1. Evolving technology. Using application integration tools would easy the pain in performing the work in comparing in using APIs.
2. Maintenance of the integration of the existing applications. It takes too long to maintain integration of application than use an EAI tool.
3. Scalability of your corporate solution. When your company solution evolves, it's too difficult to use API in comparing a EAI tool. A typical API merely allows to implement a full featured communication exchnange with a third party application or component. From other side a suite of EAI services performs event exchange, routing, connectivities, and business workflows implementation.
