What is Integration as a Service?

84% of system integration projects fail or only partially meet their goals. Not because the software is bad, but because the approach is wrong. Organizations keep treating integration as a project you survive, not a capability you operate.

This video explains the fundamental flaw in project-based integration, what changes when you shift to Integration as a Service, and how the Integration Ops operating model is transforming enterprise connectivity the same way DevOps transformed software delivery.

‍

You'll learn why buying integration tools isn't the same as buying integration outcomes—and why that distinction matters more than ever when the average enterprise runs 897 applications.

Key Takeaways

→ Why "scope it, build it, deploy it, close the project" is a trap disguised as a process

→ The difference between project, product, and service mindsets for integration

→ What Integration as a Service actually is (and what it isn't)

→ How Integration Ops mirrors the DevOps and SecOps evolution

→ Why the real cost of integration isn't the build - it's everything after day one

The Integration Reality Check

84% of system integration projects fail or only partially meet goals

39% of IT time spent maintaining custom integrations (not building new capabilities)

897 average number of applications per enterprise

Zero - the number of iPaaS vendors that take operational liability for your integrations
