- "Middleware" means "I am locked into a closed, proprietary application from vendor A, and a closed, proprietary application from vendor B, and they don't interoperate at all. So I buy something from vendor C that kinda-sorta lets A and B talk to each other . Except vendor A only speaks German and vendor B hates Brussel sprouts and they will only let me talk to them if i'm wearing a blindfold and a tutu, and i'm often recommended by consultants who will charge an arm and a leg and then vanish as soon as i've been purchased and, hey, why is there a label that says 'Snake Oil' on my ass?"
