Chapter 4. Extended Enterprise pattern
The Extended Enterprise business pattern, which is also known as the
Business-to-Business or B2B pattern, addresses the interactions and
collaborations between business processes in separate enterprises. This pattern
can be observed in solutions that implement programmatic interfaces to connect
inter-enterprise applications. In other words, it does not cover applications that
are directly invoked via a user interface by business partners across
organizational boundaries.

Note: The Application patterns for Extended Enterprise are basically the
implementation of Application Integration across organizational boundaries.
The differentiation is mainly in the way Quality of Service aspects affect the
Runtime patterns.
