in a menu list:
"Point Solutions
ISV / Homegrown
ebusiness Solutions
Messaging
Commerce
Collaboration"
other intances in the same text:
"Competitors include Microsoft and Borland and other ***point solution*** vendors but XXX is in the only vendor that provides a complete integrated family of tools for each member of the software development team.
"XXX's competitors include zz, zzz and zzzz and our advantage is very fast deployment, the availability of over 15 hundred applications and related technology event monitors out of the box, faster problem resolution through route cause identification, and the fact that we provide a truly integrated solution rather than a collection of ***point products***."
...does it mean "single solution"?

opposite of "infrastructure solution"
This is a solution which is used "locally" (only by some users), often in a Direct Attach Environment. The opposite of it is an "infrastructure solution" which is used by many users in a networked environment

If you seek for a synonym to translate the term into another language, I think \"separate\", \"isolated\" or \"detached\" applications may somewhat render the idea.

Here is an example:
Within this same 1.0 million hours MTBF rating, two different workload standards are actually employed, corresponding to twodiscrete enterprise environments. Just as SCSI/SAS and Fibre Channel address unique needs within online storage, so too dothese infrastructures play distinct roles in nearline settings. SAS-based tiered storage typically supports point applications(characterized by intermittent workloads and fewer users), and thus requires a less exacting standard. FC-based tiered storage,however, warrants a more rigorous standard because it must support infrastructure applications (entailing near-continuousworkloads, 24x7 availability and many users) without compromising application performance or availability.
