IT-integration strategy
For many businesses, IT decisions for implementing new applications to support business needs have been delegated and spread throughout the organization. The ability to invest in different types of cloud-based application solutions has created a situation where companies have ended up with many best-of-breed applications in a hybrid solution environment that are not optimally integrated.
Organizations have ended up with best-of-breed applications and hybrid solutions for several reasons:
- Be able to keep previous investments
- Specialization and customization are important
- Flexibility is critical
- Cost-effectiveness
- Interoperability is needed
- Faster Innovation must be possible
- Risk diversification
This leads to a new need for an efficient integration strategy. The integration strategy can be described as a layered solution that should have the following characteristics:
- Modularity and scalability
- Facilitate system maintenance and updates
- Interoperability with all types of applications and systems
- Security optimization on different levels
- Performance optimization
- Cost-effectiveness
- Simplified fault identification
- Agile development
In summary, implementing a layered integration strategy will allow organizations to meet today’s rapidly changing business and technical requirements.
