Vendor Landscape: Application Integration Middleware

Find the tastiest meat for your application sandwich.

  • The organization must share data and business processes both internally and externally, and IT wants to avoid having to develop extensive code to connect the systems.
  • There are numerous legacy systems running alongside cutting-edge newer applications, which must be integrated so the organization can continue to benefit from both infrastructures.
  • IT must identify a comprehensive unified middleware suite that incorporates an easy-to-use development tool, ensures scalability, improves business processes, and creates interoperability between all existing systems.

Our Advice

Critical Insight

  • Deployment of a middleware solution is an essential strategy for IT departments that are facing growth in the number of applications. Middleware allows companies to future-proof their infrastructure and drive business growth by connecting legacy systems to the latest technology developments.
  • Vendors have begun to bundle their product offerings into a single platform that provides all the initial services required but also enables scalability for future growth.
  • While all middleware technology performs similar functions, each product has its own strengths and weaknesses, leading to some differentiating features that suit different enterprise and infrastructure needs.

Impact and Result

  • Deploying middleware within your infrastructure will provide better service quality to customers, improve business processes, facilitate business innovation, and enable systems to communicate more efficiently.
  • Gain insight into which vendor best aligns with your organization’s needs and which middleware solution will provide the most efficiency within your infrastructure.
