The Role of e-Business in Business

Many businesses are using Internet Technologies to Web-enable their business processes and create innovative e-business applications.

E-business is the use of Internet technologies to work and empower business processes, electronic commerce, and enterprise collaboration within a company and with its customers, suppliers, and other business stakeholders. The Internet and Internet-like networks – those inside the enterprise (intranet) and between an enterprise and its trading partners (extranet) – have become the primary information technology infrastructure that supports the e-business applications of many companies.

Enterprise collaboration systems involve the use of software tools to support communication, coordination and collaboration among the members of networked teams and workgroups.

Electronic commerce is the buying, selling, marketing and servicing of products, services, and information over a variety of computer networks.
