What is iPaaS? What a Cloud Integration Platform Can Do for You

An integration platform as a service (iPaaS) is a managed solution for hosting, developing, and integrating cloud data and applications. The best iPaaS solutions include easy, graphic tools to help visualize and work with an overall business intelligence picture.

Also referred to as a “cloud integration platform,” an iPaaS can provide everything from infrastructure and data warehousing to application design and DevOps environments. In an increasingly cloud-based world, the right iPaaS solution can vastly simplify the integration of data, applications, security, and business compliance.

Whether you are looking to launch a cloud integration as an expansion of the physical environment, or architect a pure cloud ecosystem, choosing an iPaaS provider is key to successfully adopting cloud technologies in your business. Below we’ll take a look at how an iPaaS is used, tools and options, and getting started with a cloud integration model that will uniquely mirror your business needs.
