More and more organizations are deploying digital technologies with a view to stay ahead of the competition. Many organizations are deploying advanced technologies, i.e., Internet of Things (IoT), mobility, big data to improve their business performance. However, many of them are failing to leverage the combination of new and old technologies as they run into conflict due to the lack of integration. To remove chaos from the IT ecosystem and harmoniously balance the network divide between differentiated technologies, organizations need to automate orchestrations with an Enterprise State Bus (ESB) integration. In this blog we will explore some common ways an ESB helps organizations in better harnessing the digital technologies:
Helping IT Assume a Governance Role: An ESB solution releases cadence and helps in driving the digital transformation initiatives. Modern technologies offer APIs for integration which are difficult to be connected and requires costly IT intervention. Advanced ESB tools offer features for load balancing between applications and reduce run time errors. Advanced features help normal business users in managing a plethora of cloud and on-premise applications without custom coding. This advantage saves business critical IT teams in assuming the governance role.
Driving Business Agility: Well orchestrated technologies give the valuable opportunity to a organization in improving products and services. It establishes seamless connectivity between products and harnesses more value from the combination of services.
Applying Policies from a Single Interface: An advanced ESB solution also gives the advantage of business process management. It allows in applying IT policies from a centralised interface. Normal business users can enforce security policies on-premise workloads. Teams can monitor and fix vulnerabilities, authorise access management rights and block malicious activities.
Streamlining Partner Data Exchange: An ESB tool offering reusable connectivity to enable business partners to share data without any disruptions. It drives down the cost of setting up separate connections for creating workflows for business data exchange. Teams can reuse the connectivity over and again for integrating digital platforms, and onboarding multiple partners & customers.
Managing Business Processes: Business Process Management guides digital transformation in the right trajectory. It enables a best path for aligning technologies in line with the business strategy. An ESB solution provides the support to engineering operations and delivers a unified process management approach. It also delivers cross platform compatibility and customizations to drive DT initiatives.
Independent coding can slow down the adaption of digital technologies. An ESB integration solution can help organizations in making the most out of their digital transformation initiatives. It helps in resolving many business problems and removing the chaos out of IT. High performing application integration solutions can enhance IT governance and interoperability in a differentiated IT environment.
