An Architecture of interoperable information systems describes how interoperating information systems can be efficiently designed and implemented. Since the invention of information system, concepts were created to describe how information systems can be connected to each other in an efficient manner. In the context of enterprise information systems in 2010 also a concept named "Architecture of Interoperable Information Systems" (AIOS) was published.

The problem of interoperating information systems is tackled since the invention of information system, and many concepts were created to foster interoperability betweent different kind of information systems.
