Literatures show that there are several structured integration frameworks which emerged with the aim of
facilitating application integration. But weakness and strength of these frameworks are not known. This
paper aimed at reviewing these frameworks with the focus on identifying their weakness and strength. To
accomplish this, recommended comparison factors were identified and used to compare these frameworks.
Findings shows that most of these structure frameworks are custom based on their motives. They focus on
integrating applications from different sectors within an organization for the purpose of
eliminating communication inefficiencies. There is no framework which guides application’s integrators on
goals of integrations, outcomes of integration, outputs of integration and skills which will be required for
types of applications expected to be integrated. The study recommended further study on integration
framework especial on designing unstructured framework which will
