Need some help integrating your cloud or on-premise software with a cloud-hosted application? Why don't you give us a chance to show you how seamless and effective AppSierra's cloud integration services are?
Cloud technologies are rapidly becoming one of the most significant investments for organizations. In fact, about 94% of all companies worldwide rely on cloud platforms one way or another. Therefore, there has never been a better time for businesses to start with cloud integration than right now.
Cloud platforms allow you to access a range of features without having to keep the bulk on your system. So, if you are looking for methods to cut costs on hardware while still keeping your data secure and accessible, then you are at the right place. Here, we will explore how AppSierra's cloud integration services can benefit your business in the long term.
Roadmap to AppSierra's Cloud App Integration
Cloud integration refers to the process of bringing data from different sources to a unified cloud-based platform. Integrating your on-premise software with cloud platforms will allow change to the way you use data. Cloud integration allows you to break data silos and improve connectivity and visibility in your organization.
Generally, the steps of our cloud integration services and their timeline differ based on factors like the number of applications, architecture, integration approach, compliance requirements, etc. However, here is a simple breakdown of the steps we will take to help you integrate your data with a cloud platform:
Planning and Designing
The first step of our cloud integration services includes meticulously planning and designing a successful strategy. At this stage, our experts will decide the scope of the project. Simultaneously, we will also focus on deciding the most suitable approach for cloud app integration.
Here is how each step will take place:
Scoping and planning
- Our cloud integration experts will first carefully define the system to be integrated and the data to be shared.
- We will then draw out any concerns you have regarding their integration. These could be related to security, compliance, disruptions, etc.
- The next part of our cloud integration services includes defining the infrastructure capabilities and constraints.
- If a legacy system is involved in this process, then we will conduct audits to analyze its capabilities and constraints.
- Afterward, our experts will figure out how the data should flow and whether it needs to be changed to the new format.
- Then we will check the number of communication protocols needed between integrated applications.
- If you have pre-existing standards for integration architecture our experts will carefully examine them. Conversely, they can also help you define new types of standards to use in the integration architecture.
- The next part of our cloud integration services includes defining non-functional requirements for the integrated systems. In addition, we will also help you define compliance requirements.
- Lastly, as a part of scope and planning, we will check if there are any ready integration solutions available.
Selecting the right integration approach
AppSierra's cloud integration experts will decide upon an integration approach from these four major options that can divided into two categories: Direct Integration and Mediated Integration.
Direct integration includes two approaches:
- Usage of tools and out-of-the-box integration provided app vendors
- Usage of custom code for cloud integration.
Mediation integration can also be divided into two prominent approaches:
- Using Enterprise Services Bus, which is a cloud integration solution for enterprises
- Utilizing the integration platform as a service
The approach of our cloud integration services will depend on the number of applications to be integrated, the terms of investments, the overall IT strategy, non-functional requirements, etc. We understand that a single integration approach may not fit your requirements. Therefore, AppSierra's experts combine multiple approaches to help you achieve seamless integration.
Implementation
This part of our cloud integration services will differ based on the approach. For direct integration, our experts will either design and install custom APIs, or they will implement ready-to-use APIs to complete the process.
On the other hand, for mediated integration, our implementation would be as follows:
- Building or buying a glue layer to handle the
- Message routing
- Modification
- Aggregation
- Changing the mapping of the data.
- Next, we will create connections so your application can communicate with the glue layer.
- Lastly, we will implement the integration by configuring triggers for requests sent to the services. And by configuring invokes for requests sent from the services to the target.
Testing
Our cloud integration services include vigorous testing to ensure quality above all. Here is how
- Our QAs will ensure all data requests and updates between connected systems are working correctly.
- They will ensure that all parts of the transaction are completed across different systems.
- Our cloud integration services will confirm that integrated systems correctly handle any error and unexpected situations.
- Next, our experienced QA will also check and ensure that the backup systems are working properly or not.
- We will test the integrated system's performance within bandwidth limitations.
- Finally, they check if the integrated system can handle large amounts of data and requests without any issues.
Support and evolution
The very last step of our cloud integration services includes monitoring the performance of the integrated system. Our experts will monitor the integrated systems to ensure everything is working smoothly. In addition, our experts can help you update and modify integration steps as your business needs evolve.
