Enterprise portals (EPs) are internet technologies that provide windows into enterprise information, applications and processes. EPs go by many names, including corporate portals, business portals and enterprise information portals.

Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) is the process of monitoring performance across the enterprise with the goal of improving business performance. An EPM system integrates and analyzes data from many sources, including, but not limited to, e-commerce systems, front-office and back-office applications, data warehouses and external data sources. Advanced EPM systems can support many performance methodologies such as the balanced scorecard.

Enterprise nervous system (ENS) is Gartner’s term for the intelligent network that provides unifying connectivity among people, application systems and devices in different locations and business units across a virtual enterprise. The emerging ENS is based on the traditional enterprise network, but it is an evolution of that network, providing value-added functions that elevate the role of the network well beyond that of plain communication. Whereas a conventional network simply aims to transfer data between sending application systems and explicitly defined destinations, an ENS offloads work from the application systems because it:
Offers enhanced quality-of-service for communication
Transforms messages
Redirects messages as appropriate, using logical business rules
May track and control business processes

An enterprise mobile communications gateway (EMCG) is a server that is integrated into the corporate telephony system to support mobile phones. It can support both single-mode (cellular) and dual-mode (cellular/Wi-Fi) network capabilities.

Gartner defines enterprise metadata management (EMM) as the business discipline for managing the metadata about the information assets of the organization. Metadata is “information that describes various facets of an information asset to improve its usability throughout its life cycle.”
Industry:Technology
Enterprise information management (EIM) is an integrative discipline for structuring, describing and governing information assets across organizational and technological boundaries to improve efficiency, promote transparency and enable business insight.

Enterprise information archiving (EIA) is the next step in the evolution of archiving that incorporates new products and solutions for archiving user data (e-mail, files on file shares, instant messages, Microsoft SharePoint documents), and, optionally, other content types such as structured data. These products provide features such as single-instance storage across content types, retention management, content indexing and at least basic tools for e-discovery, such as search and legal hold. Due to the complexity associated with managing multiple data types within an archive, enterprise information archiving may more broadly encompass capabilities like federated archive repository management, while delivering common policy management for migration, retention and discovery.
Industry:Technology
Enterprise information architecture (EIA) is the part of the enterprise architecture process that describes — through a set of requirements, principles and models — the current state, future state and guidance necessary to flexibly share and exchange information assets to achieve effective enterprise change.
Industry:Technology
Enterprise fraud management (EFM) software supports the detection, analytics and management of fraud across users, accounts, products, processes and channels. It monitors and analyzes user activity and behavior at the application level (rather than at the system, database or network level), and watches what transpires inside and across accounts, using any channel available to a user. It also analyzes behavior among related users, accounts or other entities, looking for organized criminal activity, fraud rings, corruption or misuse.
Industry:Technology
Enterprise context is the first key deliverable of the EA process during the work of organizing the EA effort. The enterprise context is the process of identifying internal and external environmental trend, articulating the business strategy, identifying requirements, creating principles and developing anchor models of the business.
