Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to provide interaction of ecosystems with each other (ecosystems-ecosystems) through the value-creating ecology. Ecology is used as a metaphor for information systems in organizations. The main difference between the ecology of creating value with the supply chain and the value chain is that the value-creating ecology is a network value chain. Therefore, since ecosystems have a wider concept than the network and are more complex, the use of value-creating ecology for interactions between ecosystems will be more efficient, and thus produced ecological values. First, using the qualitative analysis method, the theme is related to each of the categories and with the analysis done by the software, correlation between the categories identifies. Then, through a questionnaire containing 135 questions, each of codes are given in the coding phase, measure regression and correlation between the categories. Composite Reliability measured the validity of the theme. On the other hand, the ability to communicate effectively between SMAC ecosystem and the digital business ecosystem through the value-creating ecology has also been tested, which result of this test confirms the effectiveness of this interaction.
