A significant excerpt from the interview of the CEO of Mind-Mercatis Simone Avogadro on iPaaS, Hybrid Cloud and integration strategies on ZeroUnoWeb.
Hybrid integration goes through iPaaS, and Mind-Mercatis, an IT consulting firm specializing in integration design offers solutions iPaaS that simplify communication between heterogeneous data and applications through native APIs and connectors. Integration today appears to be the central element in being able to respond quickly to business needs.
With business running, enterprise IT must ensure unprecedented speed of development and release. The use of Hybrid IT solutions that bring together on-premise systems and as-a-service applications enable agility and accelerate time to market. This approach brings benefits in terms of featurerichness andcost-effectiveness, but also on the continuum of solutions. By purchasing a service that can be easily deployed and decommissioned, the company is empowered to always acquire the best solution.
However, freedom of choice is constrained by the integration strategy. If integrations are done in a handcrafted manner, there is a risk of vendor lock-in. There are several technologies that specialize in integration, and the choice must be made in best-of-breed logic. Mind-Mercatis ' contribution in the evolution of enterprise IT can be about full-stack support starting with the software selection of the different application components or only intervention for the integration part, with focus on iPaaS. The pay-as-you-go model allows for experimentation without having to make large initial investments.
