Software AG is re-defining enterprise integration with the launch of the ‘Super iPaaS’ – a new category of integration platform necessary to meet the changing needs of large, modern businesses. The ‘Super iPaaS’ will help manage the chaos of connectivity caused by rapid digital expansion: a growing and formidable challenge for today’s businesses that current integration tools cannot tackle because they are too focused on only one or two relevant capabilities and cannot handle hybrid multi-cloud environments.
A Super iPaaS helps large enterprises maintain good IT governance while giving them ways to become more agile and productive. In order to do this, it must have five key components, the inclusion of which is what makes the Super iPaaS different from all integration tools that came before. The five capabilities are:
- Integrates Applications + Data + APIs + B2B + Event streams.
- True cloud-first enterprise end-to-end hybrid integration: mainframe to cloud.
- Global to meet data sovereignty laws yet managed centrally to assure governance.
- A common user-interface across all aspects of the platform.
- Leverages the power of generative AI to drive agility and productivity.
Software AG fulfils the criteria for the Super iPaaS with its webMethods.io and StreamSets products.
Sanjay Brahmawar, CEO of Software AG commented: “Every company wants to innovate; but every company feels some kind of pain when they try. We are more reliant on data and insight than ever before and yet even the largest organizations in the world are forced to use old-gen tools to try and unlock the true value in their data. We’re here to change that. We’re here with an enterprise integration proposition that doesn’t exist anywhere else. Integrate anything. Anywhere. Anyhow. Businesses don’t have this freedom to operate as they need to today. But they will now, with the Super iPaaS.”
Rami Kichli, Senior Vice President, Middle East and Türkiye, shared insights on the impact of the Super iPaaS in the region, stating: “Integration serves as the cornerstone of digital transformation initiatives in smart, connected cities like Dubai. The Super iPaaS category’s capabilities address current enterprise integration challenges. Super iPaaS will facilitate organizations’ long-term objectives of providing innovative and unified services to stakeholders, driving digital transformation and fostering a more connected digital future. The choice of GITEX Global as the global announcement platform underscores the region’s growing significance in the technology landscape.”
The Super iPaaS helps organizations find benefits in three key areas:
- It enables organizations to be more agile: Organizations become able to adapt as quickly as the technology landscape changes and work the way they want. With a unified platform across data and application integration, they get a seamless flow of data so they can make decisions using their data and put them into action immediately. They can develop integrations anyway and anyhow their teams prefer, and then deploy them in any cloud or region in a click.
- It lets organizations be more productive and get more done: With a unified integration platform, teams need to learn less and can collaborate more. They can build applications and experiences and deploy them as APIs in one motion. It lets business technologists automate workflows using generative AI but manage them centrally to avoid shadow integrations.
- It gives organizations control to reduce their risk: With centralized control and distributed execution, integrations can run anywhere. With a “single pane of glass” across their integrations, APIs and data pipelines for end-to-end visibility across transactions, organizations have a unified experience for all integrations that delivers complete observability and offers compliance without adding chaos.
