iPaaS case study: Gaining cloud benefits in application integration while maintaining full data security
Session Details
Session Abstract
A previous presentation at Cloud Slam (“Video Killed the Radio Star and Cloud Computing Will Kill the Programming Star,” Cloud Slam ’11) discussed how the explosion of cloud-callable APIs and simple, intuitive programming tools will empower non-programmers to revolutionize IT through an explosion of situation applications. This represents a new best-of-breed approach for both back-office and front-office applications, enabled by SaaS and knitted together with new middleware and interoperability tools. This presentation will provide a concrete example of a product, Dell Boomi, enabling the trend, and demonstrate with a proof of concept from pharmaceutical giant Novartis how the ideas have become real. Unfettered adoption of the cloud model and realization of cloud benefits means addressing application and data integration, and today’s integration tools must evolve and deploy at the speed of cloud, even while meeting fundamental security and compliance requirements – just like all of the application landscape today.
