- 2. Should you be moving on from Traditional iPaaS solutions? YES.Traditional iPaaS is dying and modern, forward thinking businesses require Next Generation iPaaS and EiPaaS technologies and methodolgies to remain competitive.
- 3. What is iPaaS? Integration Platform as a Service Many businesses see the advantage of adding more applications and services to their network of integrated applications, so they may extend the benefits of software integrations to a wide range of people and teams around the business.
- 4. What is EiPaaS? Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service Enterprise iPaaS projects typically look to enable specific business capabilities and objec- tives rather than simply connecting up one platform to another.
- 5. Why will a business invest in an integration as a platform service? Businesses who experience high volumes of integration-caused outages look to iPaaS as a one-stop solution for reducing downtime across integrations and the services that depend on them.
- 6. What integration tools should you consider? In 2019 Gartner speculated an upcoming shift away from traditional iPaaS players such as Dell Boomi, Informatica and IBM App Connect over the next 4 years. Because of shifts in customer expectations, it will be the lighter, faster and more non-IT-centric tools that become the market leaders in the run up to (and beyond) 2023. Products such as ONEiO, who sit within the Next Generation iPaaS category are the products which end users should be looking to adopt and implement right now.
- 8. 1. Setup Costs. Traditional iPaaS requires paying large sums manage setup costs because new applcations cannot simply be added to the platform they require high complexity builds. Solution: Using providers who offer pre-built integrations should be extremely important to your decision making and software selection.
- 9. 2. Timelines. Traditional iPaaS causes integrations to become projects with long time frames and specific software integrations marked as milestones down a timeline. Solution: Modern integration does away with long project timelines, and instead emphasizes on increasing maturity over time.
- 10. Older iPaaS technologies, don’t use single language or (truly) centralized solutions for integrations. Instead they are cumbersome and decrentralized hand-built API-led integrations. Solution: A truly shared and centralized integration hub enables you to build, manage and scale your integrations in the most flexible way possible. 3. Technical complexity.
- 11. Cloud integration platforms Cloud based iPaaS is significantly more affordable, flexible, more secure, improve data agility and result in a seamless and real-time data synchronisation, providing every person and team with the most up-to-date and accurate data at all times.

- 13. Hybrid integration platforms and SaaS integrations One challenge fast growing organisations have, is a percentage of their tools are cloud/SaaS based and another percentage are on-premise or self/hosted. By adopting modern iPaaS the complexity will never come from the technical aspects of where the software is hosted.
- 14. Next Generation iPaaS Next generation iPaaS includes an ecoystem of integrations to applications and service providers and focuses on improving business capabilities such as business-wide collaboration and operational efficiency. Next Generation iPaaS also introduces a number of major benefits including; unlimited many-to-many connections, 100% subscription-based pricing and a ‘only pay for what you use’ commitments.
