Three primary trends driving integration market
#1Integration being
adopted in the
line of business
(Empowered
LOB)
#2 Increasing need
to integrate
across a hybrid
environment
6
Changing dynamics
require a combination of
app + api + data
integration in an
enterprise solution
#3

Trend #1- Integration needs outside IT
Integration
being adopted
in the line of
business
7
By 2017, in large organizations, at least 65% of
new integration flows will be developed outside
the control of IT departments.
-Gartner

Trend #2- Hybrid
8
Increasing need
to integrate
across a hybrid
environment
As organizations’ data and applications become more
decentralized, integration is gaining focus to the point
of being a boardroom topic.

Trend #3 – API Management and Economy
API Economy and
Microservices
