Description:

Integration technologies have traditionally been used by a narrow audience within an organization to connect applications. As businesses undergo a new wave of digital transformation, integration finds itself evolving to become "pervasive" and playing a key role as the critical infrastructure of a digital business platform. Pervasive integration is used by both developers and business users, both within a company's properties and at the far reaches of the "edge". Establishing a digital business platform requires a mastery of new integration architectures and patterns.

In this webcast you will learn:

  • How pervasive integration spans the entire enterprise
  • Why integration is a key component of a digital business platform
  • New paradigms such as serverless architectures and event-driven microservices
  • Edge-computing and machine learning scenarios
  • Examples of technology that enable digital transformation
