Bostech Corporation, which was founded in 1997, is a company that provides SOA and application integration software.

Originally an IT consulting business, the company began marketing ChainBuilder, its first product, in 2001. ChainBuilder, a technology that gets incompatible software packages to exchange information, helped the company transition to global enterprise integration software.

Bostech's ChainBuilder became a prominent cross-industry integration tool used by organizations ranging from e-commerce retailers like Amazon.com to energy producers like Aventine Renewable Energy. Bostech helps these businesses seamlessly share, exchange, and transact critical information with their customers, suppliers, partners, and employees.

In 2006, Bostech made a technology advancement in the Service Oriented Architecture space completely re-coding a new open source Java version of ChainBuilder into ChainBuilder ESB,a JBI-complaint Enterprise Service Bus. Based on Bostech's years of experience in the integration space, ChainBuilder ESB uncommonly includes many components that bring disparate non-XML applications into the new SOA fold. All versions of ChainBuilder implement application development through graphical interfaces.

In 2008, Bostech added the ChainBuilder for SIF suite, in cooperation with the Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF) initiative. The software suite brings to the education market the SIFBuilder Zone Integration Server (ZIS) and a new SIFBuilder Universal Agent, which adds unprecidented flexibility for school districts to connect any education application to any Zone Integration Server.

With company operations in Ohio and a sales and development team in China, Bostech Corporation was founded by Brad Bostic in Indianapolis, Indiana, and is privately owned.
