Claim 4:
5. A method for integrating heterogeneous computing systems, comprising:
identifying, by an endpoint system agent operating on a client device, a read/write operation associated with the client device based on monitoring an operation of a program executed on the client device, wherein identifying the read/write operation based on monitoring the operation of the program includes capturing a plurality of packets and identifying from the plurality of packets an updated flat file modified according to the read/write operation;
extracting, by the endpoint system agent from at least one of the client device or a client system in communication with the client device, data having a first syntax associated with the client system in response to identifying the read/write operation, wherein extracting the data includes (i) reading the updated flat file stored in the client system, (ii) comparing the updated flat file to an original flat file to identify one or more changes to the updated flat file, and (iii) retrieving data associated with the one or more changes from the updated flat file stored in the client system;
receiving, by the endpoint system agent from an endpoint system, one or more rules describing a mapping between the first syntax associated with the client system and a second syntax associated with the endpoint system;
executing, by the endpoint system agent, the one or more rules to modify the data to conform to the second syntax associated with the endpoint system to produce mapped data; and
transmitting, by the endpoint system agent, the mapped data to the endpoint system.
