What is Axway B2Bi?
Axway B2Bi is an enterprise B2B integration solution that enables organizations to manage EDI transactions, APIs, file transfers, as well as data mapping, transformation, and process orchestration within a unified environment.
It is used across industries that depend on reliable, high-volume B2B transactions, including automotive, manufacturing and supply chain, retail and e-commerce, logistics and transportation, financial services, government, healthcare and life sciences.
It is designed for companies that:
- Operate complex B2B ecosystems with suppliers, distributors, logistics providers, and customers
- Need end-to-end partner management, including onboarding, mapping, transformation, and orchestration
- Still rely on EDI but want to evolve toward API-driven and AI-enabled integration
- Integrate B2B/EDI processes with enterprise IT ecosystem: ERP, WMS and other backend and front-end applications
- Require high availability, scalability, compliance, and real-time visibility for mission-critical processes
How is B2Bi different from traditional EDI solutions?
Traditional EDI tools are often rigid, siloed, and difficult to evolve, requiring separate systems for APIs, EDIs systems, monitoring, with limited support for mapping, transformation, and process orchestration.
Axway B2Bi addresses this by combining:
- EDI, APIs, and advanced integration capabilities in a single solution, including partner onboarding, mapping, transformation, and end-to-end process orchestration
- AI and API-driven automation and monitoring to improve operational efficiency and reduce errors
- High reliability and scalability through flexible deployment options, including on-premises, cloud, or hybrid with single-cluster, active/active, multi-cluster, and containerized (Kubernetes) architectures
- Broad support for EDI standards (EDIFACT, X12, XML), industry protocols (AS2, AS4, OFTP2), and regulatory requirements, enabling organizations to handle simple to highly complex B2B scenarios across industries such as automotive, retail, and logistics
- Centralized governance, partner management, and lifecycle control, including onboarding, configuration, and monitoring across large partner ecosystems
Axway B2Bi provides end-to-end visibility and traceability across transactions and business processes, enabling organizations to eliminate silos, reduce operational complexity, and reliably support both legacy EDI and modern API-driven integration within a unified environment.
What deployment and architecture options does B2Bi support?
Axway B2Bi supports flexible deployment models, including on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, allowing organizations to adapt to regulatory requirements, existing IT landscapes, and cloud strategies.
It is designed to scale with business needs through single-cluster, multi-cluster, and active/active architectures for high availability and resilience, as well as containerized deployments using Kubernetes to enable cloud-native agility and faster scaling.
Axway also provides B2B Cloud Services, including Private SaaS and Managed Services, to help organizations offload infrastructure and operations while maintaining performance, resilience, and control.
