Integration as a Service

To contract out to a third party overall integration responsibilities
- Operational?
- Incident management?
- Implementation of new integrations
  - Leverage Integration Framework

Unclear what the scope of the existing Kyndryl MSA is
- This INTaaS engagement may encroach on that MSA
- Can't get hold of the actual MSA due to restrictions
- Have reviewed a PPT overview of Kyndryl MSA Service Delivery (by Pasco Larsen, Katherine)

Scope / responsibility (overlap with Kyndryl MSA, for example)
Data Integration requirements
Prior experience with Groundswell re how well this goes…
- Update: no major new insights
Leverage our current iPaaS (OIC) vs. a new one required
- OIC and Oracle MFT – once DR-enabled – will probably be sufficient

Configuration of new integrations / connections for both Application and Data Integration requirements
Leveraging OIC for configuration
Conforming to EA Standards
- Patterns
- Principles
- Technologies Applicable
Support for Integrations
- As identified and diagnosed by existing vendor (Kyndryl)
- RFX bidder would resolve issues identified by Kyndryl
Bidder Technology Recommendations would be considered?

Integration as a Service (sometimes abbreviated as IaaS) is a cloud service delivery model for integration. Integration-as-a-Service delivers an integration solution that provides connectivity to backend systems, sources, files, and operational applications through the implementation of well-defined interfaces, web services, and calls between applications and data sources. This provides users with a more loosely coupled environment, safe from complex interdependencies. The Integration-as-a-Service delivery model enables integration across the cloud, making it possible to share data between systems as well as third-party vendors in real-time.
Businesses employ Integration-as-a-Service initiatives in order to gain agility and automate business processes. Moreover, with the change in the way the IT landscape is structured, businesses seek a flexible solution that is capable of delivering connectivity between databases, applications, files, and sources residing on-premises and in the cloud.
