So where does Slack fit in this physical analogy? We see Slack as the connective tissue that layers on top of this nervous system and connects the network of applications to the people that need to interact with them. When not deriving anatomical metaphors to explain it, we call it the application network. When all your applications are connected in this way, the system acts as a whole. When an event occurs in one organ of the body, this event travels through the body by way of this central nervous system.

We help organizations deliver a composable enterprise, enabling them to connect all of their applications, devices, and data as composable building blocks that allow them to be significantly more agile and efficient.
