#iPaaS #Technology #definition Gartner introduced the term iPaaS in 2011, referring to “a suite of cloud services enabling development, execution and governance of integration flows connecting any combination of on premises and cloud-based processes, services, applications and data within individual or across multiple organizations”. Since then iPaaS has been diligently serving its main purpose, which has been exactly connecting cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-on-premise applications. One can call these the most common use cases for an integration platform as a service.

iPaaS is a platform that connects otherwise disjointed systems to deliver a unified solution to customers. It acts as a conduit for communication between multiple systems, allowing for integration and data sharing. As we deepen our cloud dependency, iPaaS becomes integral to nearly every business model.

Integration Platform as a Service is a Cloud-based service that provides a platform to support applications and systems that involve a wide variety of data sources and Cloud applications as well as others such as mobile and the Internet of Things (IoT). Traditionally, on-premise integration involved point-to-point connectivity between systems. The increasing number of applications as well as Cloud services has made this approach unsustainable. Combining on-premise and Cloud iPaaS delivers everything needed to deploy, manage, govern and integrate applications and services.

This iPaaS definition sees vendors deploying a range of automated tools to develop integration flows that connect and then deploy them without installing or managing any hardware or middleware.  Common integration types for iPaaS:
